The publication details the core competencies that records and information management professionals need to be a success at the various stages in their career. These competencies will enable individuals to identify gaps in their current skills and knowledge so they know where they need more development. They also will be useful to managers and human resources professionals in defining descriptions for existing and new records and information management-related positions.

The Core Competencies create a common bond of understanding and a common language for performance requirements. This document is a valuable tool for anyone working in the information management field.

A download of the publication is available on ARMA International’s website at www.arma.org/competencies .  A print version will be available for purchase in the ARMA International Bookstore by Nov. 15.

The release of the core competencies is the result of a two-year development process that included the input of a 12-member writing team, 40 RIM subject matter experts who created the draft, 300 subject matter experts who validated the competencies.
