My understanding is the CRM credential covers the entire spectrum of RIM, while the IGP focuses on specialized aspects of the profession. One credential enhances the other. The websites describe the credentials as follows:
The CRM credential provides a strong foundation of core skills and competencies for the RIM professional. It covers everything from general management principles, all aspects of recordkeeping from creation, management, control, storage and disposition, through in-depth areas of recordkeeping technologies. In addition, CRM Candidates are required to put together the subject matter knowledge they gain through preparation for the exams, by writing two business case studies that demonstrate their ability to apply and convey their knowledge to upper management, clients and other constituents. (www.crm.org)
An IGP is... THE Information Governance Professional (IGP). He/she knows the ins and outs of his/her organization and its expectations. Said professional knows when to drive out excess cost, mitigate risk according to tolerance level and when to actively use information for its business value. This is a highly touted and respected person in the organization. Mission of the IGP Certification Program: Provide an information governance credential within an ethical and professional framework to support individuals to deliver organizational value and reduce risk. http://www.arma.org/r2/igp-certification
