GENERAL MEMBERSHIP MEETING MINUTES

    The Mechanical Inspectors Association of Michigan, MIAM, is a statewide organization which includes membership of all inspectors, contractors, utilities and other individuals or organizations who may be interested. 

    As you know the State of Michigan is requiring inspectors of all trades to be registered and certified by the State Department of Labor.  To this end, MIAM will provide continuing education in the form of semi-annual seminars for the recertification of mechanical inspectors. Each Spring and Fall, a Conference is held at a convenient location in the State. These Conferences each include up to 15 hours of intense state approved programs geared especially toward the mechanical inspector. Many subjects are coved with different speakers and different points of view.

    It is MIAM's sincerest desire, with your help, to grow in stature and membership and to provide mechanical inspectors statewide, through knowledge and techniques, with the ability to ensure public safety and general welfare.  We currently boast some 300 members, and we believe we can help each other achieve our common goals.
