Certified Information Professional (CIP) | Intelligent Information Management (IIM)
The Certified Information Professional (CIP) has come to represent a badge of competency and knowledge at the top of the knowledge worker pyramid for those entrusted with the task of building an information STRATEGY in a time of digital disruption. Broader than Records Management and Information Governance, Information Professionals are charged with these questions: Who owns the BIG PICTURE for how information is managed in our organization?

I've been thinking about how the technology landscape has changed since I first walked on the scene at AIIM and what the implications of these changes are for how we think about what it means to be an “Information Professional."

Managing and recording what the organization knows, what has been said, what inputs are received, what decisions and commitments have been made, and what results are achieved, is paramount to improvement and success. Failure to manage this information and make it available for sharing, search, controlled access, defined process, audit, and secure archive limits operational capability, stunts new initiatives, and exposes the business to potential liabilities.
