Dear Professor Rich,
I've been following this recent debate with interest as I've just put in my
application for the CRM exam.
I am writing because I took the two courses taught by Mary Welch in Spring
2003 and am getting ready to study for the CRM exam; I've just completed and
MA at University College London in Archives and Records Management and am
finding that my degree is more archives-oriented whereas my professional
interests are diverging more into RIM.
I can't recall my PIN number to log onto the registration page and I am
interested completeing the certifcation. I have relocated to the US and
would be very interested in starting for the 24 October date, though I'm a
bit worried about the work load, as I am currently consulting for a start-up
archival firm.
Would it be possible for me to have a look at the course syllabus to gage
whether it is practical for me to enroll now or to enroll at the spring
term?
Many thanks,
Rachel Howse
