Read all about our members in the below list and a few other topics that may spark your interest in our membership space!
Training Workshops
We have released a range of new online training workshops for 2023 with an improved structure to allow for a clear training pathway in the areas of Information, Records and Data Management! Back by popular demand is also our face-to-face sessions!
With over 40 different training workshops to choose from, you can enhance your skillset by selecting your very own tailored training pathway to help support your professional development journey.
In addition, RIMPA has introduced virtual Organisation Workshop Bundles (OWBs) to make it easier for organisations to pay and for members to map out and commit to their professional development pathway. To view the new workshops, pathways, and more head to page 42

Aranz And Rimpa Global Form Memorandum Of Understanding
In November 2022, RIMPA Global and the Archives & Records Association of NZ (ARANZ), two leading industry bodies in records, information and archives in Australia and New Zealand, were thrilled to announce that they entered into a MoU which provides members from both organisations the opportunity to access additional educational content, online resources, and discounted member rates to attend events.
“Partnering with ARANZ provides all New Zealand Information Management practitioners with additional opportunities, shared resources, increased collaboration and a bigger voice when advocating for IM changes in ANZ” – Anne Cornish, CEO RIMPA Global
The provision of education to members is paramount to both RIMPA and ARANZ and this agreement allows all members to access content and events that covers records, information and archives.
Like ARMA International, these global relationships will continue to build the RIMPA Global community and provide much needed exposure for our industry.
In the past quarter we have welcomed a total of 43 ARMA International members from Canada, Trinidad and Tobago, and the United States and 12 ARANZ members from across the ditch!
