How Establish A RIM Program, Market, & Measure for Success!

April is Records Management Awareness Month – An ideal time to showcase your RIM programming through awareness, training, and its impact on key stakeholders.  If you’re looking for ideas to either kick start your RIM program or breathe new life into an existing one – This is the session for you!

Join ARMA Seattle at our next meeting, where a panel will discuss tips on how to establish, market, and communicate a RIM program to drive adoption. We will share our insight on how to work around tight budgets, minimal resources, and limited bandwidth to expand visibility and outreach throughout your organization. This will be a great opportunity to hear how other company’s RIM programs operate and get inspired just in time for April!
