By now, you’ve undoubtedly heard about AIIM’s certificate courses in Enterprise Content Management (ECM), Electronic Records Management (ERM), Business Process Management (BPM), and Modern Records Management, which lead to the AIIM Specialist and Master designations. And of course, the Certified Information Professional (CIP) certification, which sits across all four. If you haven’t completed at least one certificate program yet, here are seven reasons why I wholeheartedly recommend you doing so!
Respected title
Approximately 10,000 attendees from around the world have registered for almost 15,000 courses since the certificate programs began just three years ago. Certificate requirements can now be seen in job postings, descriptions, resumes, and proposals all over the world.
Increase your knowledge and confidence
Learn a lot (Specialist) or a lot more (Master) about a specific RIM subject from an industry leader. AIIM’s courses will definitely help you feel like an expert! Each program and each designation has its own cool logo, which you can use on business cards, correspondence, websites, email, etc.
Demonstrate continued ability and a desire to learn
In today’s economy, it’s important to supplement practical experience with cutting edge knowledge. With the AIIM certificate programs, you learn "what, why, and how to" manage your information -- the business benefits and implications, the information lifecycle and relevant concepts, and best practices of how to implement and maintain a comprehensive RIM program or system in your organization.
Balanced approach: Focus on big-picture and immersion in relevant details
AIIM’s training programs were developed based on requirements defined by Education Advisory Groups, who represent public and private sector users, analysts, consultants, and solution providers. Classroom courses include small group exercises that are helpful and fun.
Maximize your training dollars
All Specialist and Master courses are available online, which means no travel hassles or expense! The benefits of the classroom courses include working with and getting to know other RIM professionals with similar interests and experiences. Either way, your boss should be impressed!
