Phi Iota Alpha Launches New Online Member Community

& 2010 Convention website

Phi Iota Alpha, today announced the launch of its new online member community at www.phiota.info

Designed to deliver enhanced value to all Phi Iota Alpha brothers, the new community allows members to create profiles, search for and connect with fellow members, collaborate on projects and documents, follow the latest organization news and industry trends, register for events, shop the online store, create blogs, contribute to wiki-enabled pages, and much more. The community also features groups that allow members to congregate and connect with other members regarding various points of similar interests. The site is integrated with facebook.com so that brothers can connect their social network experience online.

The new web community also provides mass email, e-newsletter and messaging systems that enable enhanced communication with, and among, community members.

For Phi Iota Alpha, the new online member community helps streamline online dues collection, event management, online donations and fundraising, ecommerce, e-communications, reporting and more – and provides one, secure community that allows Phi Iota Alpha brothers to connect and share ideas in an online environment that is safe and secure.

According to Phiota IT Director Alberto Elvira, "We felt an urgent need to improve the quality of the online experience for our brothers in way that phiota.org was lacking. We have had tremendous success with phiota.org being on top of the search ranks, and giving us greater outreach across the nation. But we needed our website to be as good on the inside.”

Phiota.info will serve as the brother only community alongside Phiota.org for the near future as content and functions are migrated from one website to another.

Additionally the 2010 Convention website was also launched at www.phiota2010.org. Created by convention chair Ernie Martinez, the site details all the events at the 2010 convention in Dallas Texas July 15^th – 18^th.

Brothers are welcome to logon on and register at www.phiota.info, and checkout the upcoming convention at www.phiota2010.org
