ARMA/Cohasset Survey Now Available!
ARMA and Cohasset Associates have just released their white paper on the records management industry survey results. This is a bi-annual effort and the results are the best way for organizations to benchmark their records management programs against others. Since the responses are anonymous, the findings are authentic and lack the spin that is inevitable in face-to-face conversations with peers...
StreaMER is now… RIM On Demand™
And MER Education is now RIM Education.
To better reflect the content and focus of this website, we have changed the names from MER (based on the MER Conference) to RIM (Records and Information Management). Soon we will add video from other conferences and even studio-based video training sessions.
RIM On Demand™ synchronizes speaker video with presentation slides in a navigational pane that allows users to pause, rewind, fast forward or position themselves at a particular slide for the ultimate training experience, anytime…anywhere.
Subscribers receive a user ID and password for unlimited 24x7 viewing for one year. Better yet, we encourage the subscriber to share the RIM On Demand™ sessions with colleagues at their desk, in conference rooms and even in larger group settings.
With RIM On Demand™ you can train dozens of your staff for less than the price of sending one of them to a conference…and they never have to leave the office.
Visit www.RIMeducation.com to preview all RIM On Demand™ sessions and download the slides for free.

Read the article by Len Langevin to learn how the RIM Foundation used StreaMER [now RIM On Demand™] in Nigeria last month. I am traveling to Nigeria next month to speak at the RIMA Foundation's annual conference and to deliver 4 days of records and information management training. It will be exciting to see StreaMER [now RIM On Demand] in use outside the US and Canada.
StreaMER [now RIM On Demand™] is also hitting the conference circuit. In July we presented StreaMER [now RIM On Demand™] at the NAGARA Conference in Seattle, the NACRC Conference in Nashville and the AHIMA Assembly on Education in Las Vegas. Look for us next month at the SAA Conference in Austin, TX.
The economy does not seem to be improving rapidly and more and more of our colleagues are finding themselves out of work. If you know of anyone in this position, please tell them about the MER Education Newsletter Guest Spot so that they can gain some exposure and networking opportunities.

Guest Spot
The current economic crisis has caused downsizing across all industries in the US and throughout the world. Cohasset is sensitive to the fact that far too many of our Records and Information Management (RIM) and eDiscovery colleagues have been negatively impacted. In response, we bring you the "Guest Spot" section of the RIM Education newsletter featuring informative articles from top quality industry associates currently seeking employment. Our goal is to provide these individuals with a forum to demonstrate their knowledge and capabilities in the hope that one of our readers might recognize their talent and either hire them directly or assist them in their networking efforts.
Submissions should be emailed to the RIMeducation Editor
