I dentifying Core Competencies for Records Management and Information Governance Professionals: A Job Advertisement A nalysis

Abstract

Records and information management (RIM) has been well needed in both public and private sectors for decades. The recent progression toward enterprise wide information governance (IG) provides a good example of RIM's fast-pacedevolution. However, what should those being hired for a RIM/IG position know? What other qualities should they bring to the job in order to survive and thrive? Unfortunately, there is a dearth of empirical research that addresses these concerns. This proposed poster  will report an on-going project that aims to identify core competencies for this group of informationprofessionals by using a job advertisement content analysis approach.
