SCHOLARSHIP AND REIMBURSEMENT OPPORTUNITIES
ACCESS LEADERSHIP SCHOLARS PROGRAM ADMINISTERED BY AIEF
RIM practitioners:  Can you use $2,000 to help with college expenses? Even
better, how about $6,000?
If you are currently employed as a RIM professional and are working towards
a college degree, you may be eligible for a scholarship of up to $6,000 from
the Access Leadership Scholars program, administered by the ARMA
International Education Foundation (AIEF). The goal of this program, now in
its fourth year, is to enable outstanding RIM practitioners to advance to
positions of greater responsibility that require college degrees and to
advance their leadership skills for roles in the field of information
management.  
Six awards have been made in prior years to RIM practitioners working in six
states across the U.S. at companies including Phillips 66, Booz Allen
Hamilton, Sealy & Co, Nova Southeastern University and Houston Community
College.  Several awardees recounted being the first in their families to go
to college.
Access CEO Rob Alston says that, “Access has long been committed to active
participation in our local communities and in the broader community of RIM
practitioners.  We believe that this level of engagement is part of who we
are and how we make a difference as a company and as Access team members.” 
 Mike Smith, Chair of AIEF, states that, “This program has enabled larger
scholarships, making a real difference in upward mobility for talented
people held back by the absence of a degree.”
