As the lead instructor for the online RIM certificate at 
Chippewa Valley Technical College, an accredited two-year
institution in Eau Claire, Wisconsin, I’m pleased to announce 
that spring registration is open for the online records management 
certificate classes. 

Registration is open now through January 18 for all five of 
the 3-credit courses in the 15-credit online RIM certificate. 
Classes run from January 14 through May 8. Tuition for 
each 3-credit course is approximately $325. Book fees are 
roughly $140. 

The certificate consists of five 3-credit courses 
delivered completely over the Internet. Topics include an 
overview of records management program 
components; records inventory, retention, vital records, 
and disaster recovery for both paper and electronic records; 
imaging issues; the relationship between records management 
and other disciplines like IT; and new and emerging 
developments in the records management profession.

Over 75 RIM professionals have registered for these 
classes since August 2005 and have found them 
beneficial to their professional growth. 

Certificate students have written: "Thank you for the wealth 
of information. The timing couldn't have been better!" and
"It was a lot of work but well worth every hour spent. I can 
use all of the information that I've learned for my job." and
“I have gained so many solid ideas to move the records 
retention program along . . . The courses are so thorough . . . 
Your curriculum and responsiveness provide a great learning 
experience.” “What a wonderful experience this online
class has been.”

Many students enroll in certificate classes because they're
new to the RIM field and want to learn more about records
management. Others enroll because they want to advance in 
their current records management position. Some records
professionals use the course material as a study base for 
the CRM exam.

Certificate details and registration information are available
at http://www.cvtc.edu/programs/rim.htm. Please click 
the “Courses Currently Available” link for current information.
(The information on the “Certificate Information” page isn’t 
accurate; all spring 2008 courses really are available.) All five 
classes in the certificate will be offered again starting 
August 25, 2008.
