AIIM Extends CIP Beta Exam through April 30, 2019

We've gotten great uptake on the CIP beta exam, but we're still looking for more people to take the exam in order to ensure we've got really good statistics to work from.

To that end, we are extending the CIP beta exam through April 30, 2019. This means you must register for AND complete the beta exam by the end of the day on Tuesday, April 30. At 11:30 pm that evening the beta will shut down so we can do the analysis required to set the passing score.

Why should you take the beta exam?

  • Be among the first to test against the updated CIP body of knowledge
  • Help shape the CIP exam for future candidates
  • Help ensure the CIP exam remains relevant and valuable moving forward 
  • Demonstrate that you know your information management stuff!
  • Save up to $200 off the current exam fee - the beta exam is only $149

The current study guide has NOT been updated, but it is still relevant for about 75% of the exam; candidates will need to supplement with additional information in these areas:

  • Robotic process automation
  • Analytics and artificial intelligence as they apply to information management
  • Privacy and data protection
We have a number of resources on these topics on the AIIM website, and all of them are free to AIIM Professional members. The study guide is also free to AIIM Professional members, but any beta candidates can request and receive the current study guide for free - just contact me at jwilkins@aiim.org

I wrote more about the beta exam and the process here. Please feel free to contact me with any questions at jwilkins@aiim.org
