AIIM Community | Certified Information Professional (CIP)
Why choose certification? For me, it's about proof (to myself and employers) of my expertise. The Certified Information Professional (CIP) started with a group of industry experts and focus groups that worked together to define the body of knowledge necessary for information professionals to be successful in the digital economy. From there, AIIM worked to build a certification exam based upon this body of knowledge - and the CIP was born. Fast forward to the present day, and the list of CIPs is growing daily and from all over the globe.
