Enterprise IT is changing • We believe that social, cloud and
mobile compu,ng are combining to create a new paradigm for how organiza,ons view enterprise IT.
• In this new era of systems of engagement, informa,on systems are not only expected to reduce risk and cost, but also to drive revenues and help engage customers, partners, and employees.
• These systems will be driven by a new expanded set of players who have a business rather than an IT focus.
The emerging informa,on professional
• The vast majority of organiza6ons see the need to manage informa6on as an enterprise resource rather than in separate "silos," departments or systems, but they don't know how to begin to address the challenge, as it is so large...
• Professional roles focused on informa6on management will be different to that of established IT roles.
• An "informa6on professional" will not be one type of role or skill set, but will in fact have a number of specializa6ons.

DOMAINS FOCUS AREAS
PROFESSIONAL CERTIFICATION covering the broad based body of knowledge that every informa,on professional needs to understand.
What would I do if I were you? – 8 things 1. Speak at a local AIIM road show. 2. Pick a training specialty/deep dive. Get us to come in and do the
Prac,,oner training in YOUR PLACE. Shamelessly use the Prac,,oner logo all over your stuff – web site, business cards.
3. Get everyone on staff to get the new Informa,on Cer,fica,on. Diko above.
4. Lobby AIIM to create some sport of “preferred provider” branding reflec,ng above commitment to training/competency.
5. Download the relevant AIIM Industry Watch research papers and presenta,ons (coming soon) and use them in your presenta,ons and PR.
6. Assemble the relevant Informa,on Cer,fica,on YouTube videos (and powerpoints) on YOUR web site and add your own propaganda marke,ng materials to them.
7. Think about how YOU can use the AIIM informa,on professional posi,oning to your advantage.
