Thanks Jesse,
That is just the kind of information I need. It looks like the exam
shows to be the older one. I saw the #226, I think, associated with the
beta test and the test available at Thomson Prometric is 225-020. Is
that the older exam?
Jack

Subject: Re: Suggestions for preparing for CDIA+
Hi Jack,
There are a number of CDIA+ manuals available. When I teach CDIA+ I use
the @Doc manuals (available from the AIIM bookstore, www.aiim.org, or
their website at www.atdoc.com). Other providers include DataVault,
www.cdiatraining.com, Specialized Solutions,
www.specializedsolutions.com, and Techinfocenter,
www.techinfocenter.com.
Non-CDIA+ manuals that would be helpful: Bill Saffady has written a book
Non-CDIA+ on
document imaging, as have others - do a search on Amazon for "document
imaging", particularly since about 1995, and those should be helpful.
MeasureUp has an online exam simulator for CDIA+ - www.measureup.com.
It's
$59 for 30 days or $79 for 90 days, I think.
AIIM offers the ECM Level I Practitioner program, which covers much of
the
CDIA+ material (imaging, records, document management, workflow, etc.).
CDIA+ It's
a bit pricier at $75/course for non-members, but it's online learning.
Also note that the CDIA+ includes a lot more project management than in
the past, so look for books on project management. I have used the
Project Management Institute Body of Knowledge (www.pmi.org) as well as
several
Project+ and PMP study guides to prepare materials.
For prep time, if you have an imaging and project management background
(at least a couple of years), I'd say you could prepare in a couple of
weeks, maybe a month, depending on how much time you focus on it.
Finally, I have a two-day class in Houston October 6-7, with seats
available. :)
Hope this helps - please let me know if I can provide additional
information.
Cheers,
Jesse Wilkins
