Certified Information Professional (CIP)
As you may know, the AIIM Board of Directors recently reached the decision to combine our Masters and Certified Information Professional (CIP) programs. A few of our members contacted me about this, and I thought I would expand upon my reply to them and give everyone the backstory on why and how that decision was reached.

Digital Transformation | Paperless Office
One of the problems with digital disruption is that once disruption occurs, it is difficult to replace the revenues lost from the old model with "new" revenues. A lot of newspapers, faced with declining advertising revenues, turned to on-line versions with the expectation that digital revenues could replace the more traditional advertising revenues. However, as this chart shows, that simply has not happened.

I recently ran into a guy coming out of church who asked me, "Do you work at AIIM?" Now, I would like to think that all of us working in the trenches as content management evangelists are famous, but truth be told, we are all a bit more of a niche than we would like to admit. So my surprised response was, "Yes, how do you know AIIM?" He said, "I used to work at NMA [National Micrographics Association, the predecessor of AIIM] back in the late 70s." My response, "Wow, that's great. What were you working on?" He responded, "I was hired to set up a conference on the Paperless Office." Sigh. Well, well, well. Some things don't change. But we are making progress. AIIM recently released our annual state of the industry Paper Wars market research study. The findings show promise.

November 6 was World Paper Free Day, sponsored by our friends at AIIM International, who also issued their annual report on how organizations are making progress removing paper from their processes. We celebrated the progress made by many organizations in reducing the paperwork and replacing paper with digital processes.
