Hi all,
I am pleased to announce that AIIM and the ICRM have established a
strategic partnership to advance best practices in records management.
Under this partnership, CRM candidates have the option to take the Part 5
exam or complete the AIIM ERM Master Class and have it count for the Part 5
exam. Candidates will still have to pass Part 1-4 and Part 6 in order to
become CRMs.
AIIM courses and events will continue to be eligible for CRM continuing
education (CMP) credits per longstanding practice. In addition, CRMs and
CRAs will be able to access AIIM training courses at the AIIM Professional
member rate.
Here's the full text of the press release:
*The Association for Information and Image Management **(*AIIM) and the
Institute of Certified Records Managers (ICRM) Partner to Advance Best
Practices in Modern Records Management
*AIIM contributes technical module to ICRM body of knowledge*
*Silver Spring, MD, September 1, 2017* – AIIM and the ICRM announce the
establishment of a strategic partnership to advance best practices in
Records and Information Management (RIM) through professional certification
and training.
This partnership will serve the RIM community by creating new paths to ICRM
certification while maintaining current standards and ensuring that the
ICRM exam, in particular Part 5, encompasses current technologies and RIM
best practices.
ICRM candidates who successfully complete the AIIM ERM Master designation
can now receive credit for passing Part 5 of the ICRM exam. CRAs and CRMs
will also receive special access to other select AIIM education courses and
resources to meet their ongoing continuing education requirements.
Jesse Wilkins, Director of Professional Development at AIIM, noted that
"The pace of technological innovation continues to increase, and with it
the challenges presented to the records professional. We believe that the
AIIM ERM Master Class provides a timely and relevant path to modern records
management and the best approach for addressing current challenges. We
respect the ICRM path to excellence and we are pleased to contribute to
that process."
“For more than 40 years, the ICRM has proudly set the standard by which RIM
professionals could be measured, accredited and recognized according to
criteria of experience and capability established by their peers. We are
excited to add AIIM as one of our strategic partners and to recognize their
ERM Master Class as one such standard for demonstrating knowledge of the
topics on the ICRM Part 5 Technology exam.” said Wendy McLain, President of
ICRM.
