What I like Most About VIN

• It's an organization that is truly for its members - it provides a forum to learn, exchange ideas, and to grow. It enables almost instant access to a case or a problem solution. It's a place where there is always something new to learn by sharing your experience with others. It supports the profession by offering computer access to everyone (members or not) at meetings.
