PIIAC is moving and grooving!
 
Dot is working closely with the contractors on the build out of our new office space. We are planning  to move into our new space in Northfield on August 15th.  We will be located just off I-70 and Central Park Blvd. The new facility will allow us to bring our CE classes in-house!

Now that's an organization with class!  In 2015 we will offer Homeowners classes, professional development classes, webinars, 24 CISR's, 9 CIC's, 2 CRM's, 2 Graduate Rubles and a Partridge in a Pear Tree... are we getting carried away there?

We are developing an Ambassador Program of our members from across the state that will work closely with the PIIAC team to market our benefits to our members, and our brand to the community.

We are going to do a call for nominations for boards and committees, watch for an email on that soon.

With our new space, you will be able to attend board meetings and committee meetings virtually, all you need is a camera in your office! We would like to encourage folks from around the state to participate in PIIAC. Get involved. We are a fun group and work hard to ensure your success.
