ARMA INTERNATIONAL WEBSITE FAQs
General ARMA
What does ARMA stand for? Originally, ARMA was the acronym for the Association of Records Managers and Administrators. Over the years, we have seen a broadening of the profession as records management has become a recognized and integral part of information governance, which is key to doing business. To reflect the changing environment and this " expansion " of the profession, the association ' s Board of Directors decided to discontinue using ARMA as an acronym and adopted " ARMA International " as a general descriptor of the association.
