Allied Member
An allied member refers to an individual interested in engaging with RIMPA (Records and Information Management Practitioners Alliance) but is not directly engaged in an information management capacity. This membership is open to various professions, including Document Controllers, CEOs or CIOs, Librarians, Data Managers, and individuals holding Governance Roles.
Allied members hold the responsibility for records and information management in specific industries, such as Primary Schools, Secondary Schools, Not for Profits, Mining and Construction. Individuals seeking membership whose job responsibilities encompass roles such as information, data, content, knowledge, records, and similar areas are not eligible for this particular category.
For those seeking active involvement within the RIMPA Community, joining as a Practitioner is recommended. If you believe the above-mentioned allied membership aligns with your requirements, please feel free to reach out to the membership team for further information.
