The MRIA 2006 National Membership Directory will be mailed out with the September issue of Vue magazine
In this new edition, we have updated the layout and the
format to make the National Membership Directory easier to search. A simplified
legend, outlining the abbreviations used within the Directory, has been
added.
As a supplement to this hard copy edition of the Membership
Directory, you can use the online
searchable membership directory for the current contact information
for all MRIA Individual members.
Be sure to update your individual and/or corporate member
record online on the website, whenever a change occurs. Please click here to
update your corporate membership record and click
here to update your individual membership record. Keeping MRIA up-to-date
is the best way to stay in touch with friends or colleagues in the industry.
