AIIM Schedules CIP Town Hall Meeting on March 18

Update 3/15: AIIM sent out an email announcing the Town Hall. Not sure who it was sent to, but here's the direct link to register for it: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZAtceGorTMpGtdDqbXS7GwoaHbFrZBUvYg5

In response to significant blowback from their decision to turn the CIP into a certificate program, including at least one public conference registration cancellation, AIIM has announced it is holding a CIP Town Hall on March 18, 2022. So far it has not been announced via email, but only through an AIIM Community post and event listing, meaning that only AIIM+ members can register and attend. 

The post announcing the town hall reads, "Our recent changes to the CIP Program relating to exam testing and CEU submission has resulted in some passionate responses.

We would like to invite you to join AIIM President, Peggy Winton, for a CIP Town Hall to discuss the reasoning for these changes, and together to share some solutions and ideas to grow the certification for the benefit of every CIP.

This 45 minute Town Hall will be hosted on Friday March 18th at 11:30 AM (EST).

 

Your opinion counts & we want to hear from you!"

When I registered, I received confirmation that includes this line: "Thank you for registering for AIIM CIP Town Hall: discuss the recent programmatic changes and elicit actionable ideas for improvement. You can find information about this meeting below."

I have some thoughts on actionable ideas for improvement - most of which I submitted before leaving AIIM - which I put together in this post: http://informata.blogspot.com/2022/03/actionable-ideas-for-cip.html. 

But for AIIM+ members who wish to participate in the town hall, you can find the event on the home page of the community. If you have thoughts you wish to share, you can also add them to the long post titled, "Any CIP Mentors Out There?" You can also send it to me and I can add it anonymously.
