Prez Talk: A Message from Wyoming ARMA President
So whose March Madness
brackets are busted or have
been busted for quite a
while? Pick me, pick me?
Okay, for those of you
who do now know what
March Madness is, it is the
most wonderful time of the
year for anyone—you don’t
have to love the sport.
Okay, maybe besides of the
Christmas Season and any
vacation, of course! I am a
little more excited this year
than usual because I am
headed down to Dallas to
go to the Women’s Final
Four.
Okay, now on to business.
We had an awesome turn-
out for our 2017 Spring
Seminar. We had 47 at-
tendees from around the
state attend. Guest speakers
Courtney Stone and Andrew
Ysasi combined their
presentations to provide
information regarding how
to work in lean times and
use what we have to collab-
orate and get our jobs done
in the best and most effi-
cient way possible.
Our seminar evaluations
were again received with
high marks, and thanks
again to those who took the
time to vote. We take the
evaluations seriously and
use them to continue to
improve our seminar the
next year.
We also had a good year
for our silent auction. We
brought in $1,070 for our
revamped Vicki Carroll Pro-
fessional Development
Scholarship Fund. Thanks
to all who placed a bid on
our items!
If you were unable to at-
tend the seminar, we are
pleased to share Courtney’s
and Andrew’s presentations
on our Wyoming Chapter of
ARMA website at http://
www.armawyoming.org/
until April 11th.
Again, I would like to say
thank you to the chapter
seminar committee, the
board of directors, and eve-
ryone who participated and
donated to ensure our
spring seminar and silent
auction continue to be a
success. Without everyone’s
help, it would be a struggle
to pull off this event every
year.

These are lean times in Wy-oming, so when organization-al budgets are being slashed, how do you make sure your RIM and IG programs con-tinue to be a priority for your organization?
The Wyoming Chapter of ARMA addressed this issue at its 2017 Annual Spring Semi-nar held Tuesday, March 14 at the Laramie County Com-munity College in Cheyenne. The title of this year’s semi-nar was, “Surviving in Lean Times: Collaboration, Com-munication & Cooperation.”
Guest speakers included Andrew Ysasi, MS, CRM, CIPM, CIPP, PMP. Ysasi gave three presentations that covered some of the techno-logical challenges that RIM/IG professionals face today. In his first presenta-tion, “Skills Old and New—What It Takes To Become a RIM/IG Professional,” Ysasi discussed what new skills are required of RIM/IG profes-
sionals and what they can do to boost their careers along the IG domains.
The second presentation, “How IT and RIM Profes-sionals Can Work Better To-gether,” provided helpful advice on how RIM/IG pro-fessionals can improve their relationships with IT by rec-ognizing the challenges IT employees face.
Finally, in his “Cloud Con-cerns for 2017” presentation, Ysasi explained the latest cloud technologies and what RIM and IG can do to pre-pare for these technologies.
The second guest speaker, Courtney Stone, CRM, IGP, presentations focused more on how RIM and IG con-cepts and theories can be applied in the real world.
In her first interactive presentation, “From Theory to Reality—How to Make IG Happen in the Real World,” she shared tips and stories on
how to overcome obstacles to gain measurable ad-vance in your RIM/IG pro-gram.
In the last session of the day, Stone pre-sented her case study on “How One Company Converted All Their Paper Us-ing Only Internal Resources,” in which she ex-plained her com-pany’s project to go “paperless”.
This project was done using only internal resources rather than outsourcing it to ven-dors. Stone was the leader of the project and she offered some important lessons she learned in the process that organizations should take into consideration before they undertake such a project.
All seminar presentations
are currently available on the
Wyoming Chapter of ARMA
website at:
www.armawyoming.org.
In an effort to provide at-
tendees with more network-
ing opportunities, the seminar
also included a networking
session in which attendees
divided into groups to discuss
the answers to RIM/IG ques-
tions pertaining to their own
organizations.
Silent Auction
The chapter also hosted its
annual silent auction in con-
junction with its spring semi-
nar. Money raised at the silent
auction is used to fund the
chapter’s professional devel-
opment scholarships.
Donated items from vari-
ous businesses in Wyoming
and Colorado included hotel
stays, meal certificates, and
tickets to various sporting
and entertainment events,
along with jewelry, gift certifi-
cates and goodie baskets.
These items raised a total of
$1,070.
Seminar speakers explain stra tegies and tactics to keep RIM/IG relevant to orgs

Membership Spotlight:
Stephanie Gertken
My name is
Stephanie
Gertken and I
am a Records
and Data
Management
Specialist with
the Wyoming
Department
of Environ-
mental Quality Water Quality
Division.
I was raised in St. Michael,
Minn., about an hour north-
west of the Twin Cities. Both
my parents’ extended families
live in central Minnesota so I
grew up with a lot of cousins,
aunts and uncles in the mix. I
received my Bachelor of Arts
at Macalester College, a small,
liberal arts school in St. Paul,
Minn., where I studied theater
and anthropology.
I married a
Wyomingite
shortly after
college and we
lived in the
Twin Cities for
several years.
On our visits to
Wyoming, I
was stunned by
the beautiful vistas and the
mountains left me breathless
(in more ways than one as I
tried to adjust to the altitude.)
When I began to pursue my
graduate degree at the Uni-
versity of Michigan, my hus-
band and I spent a brief stint
in Ann Arbor and then re-
turned to the Twin Cities af-
ter I completed my Master of
Science in Information. I spe-
cialized in Archives and Rec-
ords Management because I
enjoyed learning ways to build
and maintain systems that
better supported users’ infor-
mation needs.
After graduating, I worked
as a librarian with several
public libraries in the metro
area. I loved the chance to
work with patrons and track
down that one particular
book or article they were hav-
ing trouble finding or guide
them through a confusing
computer application.
When I was offered the
Records and Data Manage-
ment Specialist position with
DEQ, I was thrilled, not only
for the chance to be in the
mountains I fell in love with
on my earlier visits, but be-
cause my position combines
all aspects of my passion for
information management. I
have the opportunity to work
directly with my colleagues to
better understand their infor-
mation needs and how I can
support them through more
thoughtful database design,
metadata structure and rec-
ords management guidance.
One of the major initiatives
I am currently working on is
an effort to digitize the Water
Quality Division’s records so
as to free up physical space
and ease user access to rec-
ords. I collaborate with pro-
gram staff to determine how
they use their records now
and their potential future
needs in order to design ef-
fective and efficient ways for
them to store and retrieve
their information. I am espe-
cially excited to work with the
Water Quality Division be-
cause water issues play such a
vital role in the health of Wy-
oming’s environment, popu-
lation and economy.

Program Descriptions
Digital Dusting—Spring Cleaning for Network File Shares:
Do you click on multiple files before you find the one you need? Has your network file shares become a “digital
graveyard?” This session will address in detail how to provide structure to network drives, including best practices
for creating an effective folder structure, applying practical naming conventions to folders and file and options for
cleaning up the legacy mess.
Change Your Image—Preparing for Document Imaging:
Document imaging is not a new technology. However, many organizations still have not taken advantage of its
benefits. This session will address the benefits of document imaging, how to conduct a needs assessment to deter-
mine what documents are good candidates for imaging, what the imaging process involves, requirements gather-
ing, whether document imaging should be conducted in-house or outsourced, determining the ROI and evaluating
imaging software and hardware.
Training the Troops:
Awareness and training is a core element of a successful RIM program. This session will address how to creatively
bring awareness to your RIM program, RIM subjects that should be included in the employee training curriculum,
securing senior management support and options for delivering employee training.

Wyoming Chapter of ARMA
board members met Tuesday,
Feb. 28 at the Wyoming De-
partment of Transportation
office in Cheyenne. Board
members in attendance in-
cluded President and Web-
master Carolynn Coy, Chair-
person of the Board Pat
Newbern, and Treasurer Bar-
bara Thomasee. Vice-
president and Newsletter Edi-
tor April Peregoy and Mem-
bership Chair Janie Wait at-
tended via conference call.
Member Donna Crock was
also in attendance as the
Spring Seminar Registration
Chair.
President Coy called the
meeting to order at approxi-
mately 11:30 am. Because
Crock had to leave the meet-
ing by 12:30 pm, the board
began the meeting by discuss-
ing Spring Seminar items.
Board members had previ-
ously discussed that Northern
Colorado Chapter’s Paula
Sutton would be picking up
guest speaker Courtney Stone
from the Denver airport, and
would therefore be granted a
waiver for the seminar regis-
tration. However, Crock an-
nounced that would not be
happening now so Sutton’s
registration fee will be depos-
ited.
As of the day of the meet-
ing there are 37 people
signed up to attend the semi-
nar. Newbern said she has to
get Laramie County Commu-
nity College the final numbers
on Friday, March 10.
Coy and Crock suggested
doing a later get-together for
the night before which would
include the board, the speak-
ers and, possibly, the out-of-
town attendees. It was also
suggested the chapter only
pay for appetizers. Thomasee
and Newbern motioned that
the chapter pay up to $100
for appetizers. Peregoy se-
conded the motion and it
passed unanimously.
Crock said three volunteers
are needed to man the regis-
tration table. She said she will
contact members Stephanie
Gertken and Geetha
Murugesu to see if they will
help with the registration ta-
ble. She also said she would
help and Peregoy volunteered
to as well.
Crock asked the board
about letting various agencies
and organizations that have
contributed to the Spring
Seminar have free at-
tendees. The board unani-
mously agreed to let SHRAB
have two people attend for
free since they contribute
funding for the seminar.
Crock said she will print the
list of attendees for the
check-in table and the door
prize slips.
Thomasee said Tim Tyler
with WYDOT will allow any
printing of materials that
needs to be done for the sem-
inar. Crock said she will send
her everything that needs to
be printed out.
Coy said she will be in

It’s my honor as your presi-dent of the ARMA board to announce the election results for the 2017 ARMA board of directors.
I want to thank our many members who took this im-portant opportunity to help shape the ARMA board and the future of ARMA Interna-tional. The industry faces many challenges but holds even more opportunities. The continued support of our members, combined with the leadership of the ARMA board, will help shape our future plans and success.

He’s been awarded the chapter member of the year three times and chapter leader of the year twice.
In the profession since 1998, Zilm has helped devel-op ARMA Interna-tional’s Glossary of Records and Information Management Terms and has earned several industry certifications, includ-ing IGP. He is also a CRM Part 6 mentor, grader, and presenter. Earlier, he was in the IT field in the energy in-dustry and now brings that vital expertise to his role as well.
I’m also pleased to an-
nounce our new director to the ARMA board is Susan Goodman, IGP, CRM, CIP, FAI
Goodman is a long-time con-tributor to all things ARMA. Last fall, she was inducted into the ARMA International Company of Fellows.

she has served as a senior-level professional in RIM, IG, and privacy in organizations of varying sizes and indus-tries. A natural leader and strategic thinker, she will hit the ground running as a new director.
I know you join me and the ARMA International organi-zation in congratulating Ryan and Susan on their new roles. Our board is now complete and comprised of the indus-try’s best ambassadors!
