That's the opportunity to learn from my peers and colleagues, especially those from disciplines or industries I have less exposure to. It’s those conversations in the halls between sessions, during the lunch break, or after hours at the karaoke bar that can often provide new insights or new ways of looking at things.

Certified Information Professional (CIP)
The Certified Information Governance Professional (IGP) from ARMA is another certification in the information management field and one that’s attracted a lot of interest from records managers.
