Students

Thank you for taking an interest in the Academy of Certified Archivists! We are excited that you are considering becoming a Certified Archivist. We hope this page will answer the questions you have but if you have additional ones, please feel free to contact Regent of Exam Administration (examadmin@certifiedarchivists.org).

Student presentations to graduate groups

If your student chapter of SAA or other organization is interested in learning about the Academy and the requirements to sit for the exam, we have a program where a local Certified Archivist will come and do a presentation for you. This is a great activity for your student chapter of SAA, archives class, or professional development organization to take part in. Presentations are best done in the fall or early spring, before the exam registration deadline, in order to give those interested in taking the exam, a chance to apply.

If interested in this program, please contact the Regent for Outreach (outreach@certifiedarchivists.org).
