International Association for Human Resource Information Management
Encyclopedia
The International Association for Human Resource Information Management (IHRIM) is a professional association for information management
in human resources
founded in 1980.
Formed when HR and IT professionals found themselves needing mediators, IHRIM is the only Professional Human Resource Association dedicated to the HRIS and HR Technology professions. IHRIM is the clearinghouse for the HRIM (Human Resource Information Management) industry. Today, IHRIM is a community of experts - a dynamic group of practitioners, vendors, consultants, students, and faculty that continues to grow.
The Human Resource Information Management (HRIM) Foundation is an independent, charitable, 501(c)(3) organization chartered with promoting scholarships, research and education to drive innovation, and the use of technology and information management in the human resource (HR) profession. One of our recent achievements has been to fund the development of the only professional certification program designed to solidify and enhance the HRMS profession - the Human Resource Information Professional (HRIP) Certification Program.
Future plans include to:
• Fund scholarly publications on specific HR and HRIM issues.
• Encourage development of educational programs and course curriculum to advance the HRIM profession.
• Conduct research and development activities related to HRIM and the needs of HR systems professionals.
