RIM Technology has changed the global best practices for managing records and information. Laws and regulations, privacy, security, data protection, organizational needs, accreditation standards, audits, lawsuits, disasters and many other variables can impact how we should create, maintain, preserve and disposition records. Obtaining ICRM certification will elevate your RIM skills and competencies and ensure you can maintain best practices as RIM and compliance needs change. Doing so increases the value you bring to your position and your institution and can provide you with strategic advantage and the capacity to advance your career.
