ARMA International Board Approves Formation of European Group

Over the past couple of years ARMA International has increased its efforts to promote the records and information management profession and principles in Europe. As a result, we have seen increased interest at the policy-making level as well as the individual professional level. The association has been approached about forming an official entity in Europe that would allow individuals to affiliate more closely with ARMA International as members.

The Board of Directors approved the formation of a group in Europe at its May meeting. This group is being formed as a catalyst for current and future members in Europe to network, convene local education programs, and provide broader dissemination of regulatory and policy information provided through ARMA International’s EU Policy Brief, for example.

It also opens the possibility for the creation of local Chapters where this is desired. For more information on how to create a chapter in your area, please contact Tom Killam, Director of Members Services at ARMA HQ at tkillam@arma.org.
