Hi! I've been lurking on the list for a few days now and wanted to get 
opinions/advice on pursuing the CRM designation.
 Allow me to introduce myself. I presently live in the Atlanta, GA metro 
area. I'm in my first semester in a distance learning program to earn my 
MLIS from Florida State. 
 I had already taken several classes in the library school at UT Knoxville 
when I was in law school. 
 (Did I forget to mention that I have a JD, but have never had and have no 
desire to practice law?) 
 Through the auspices of Professor Mike Pemberton, I attended at least one 
records management event in those long ago and far away days.
 Following law school, I went to work for a legal information vendor (one of 
the big two) and spent 10 years with them prior to leaving their employ in 
2002. 
 I just signed up for a student membership in ARMA last week and am looking 
forward to learning more about the organization and, possibly, joining the 
local group.
 My question/request for advice is about pursuing the CRM. Is this something 
I need to do as an entry credential for the field or can I/should I wait 
until I have the MLIS in hand before beginning to study for the CRM?
 Many thanks for all responses...
