Earlier this month, we held our first ever IR Manager Certification Course here at our offices in Berkeley, CA. The course was a great success, bringing together twenty IR administrators at all levels of experience from institutions across the world for two and a half days of intensive presentations and workshops. Topics ranged from basic platform features to copyright concerns to strategies for measuring and sharing IR success, and included one-on-one time for the administrators with their Consulting Services representatives. We are proud to announce our first class of graduates:
