Please join the SAA Students and New Archives Professionals Section for the next #snaprt Twitter chat on Wednesday, March 13, at 8 pm ET. Join us as we discuss the Academy of Certified Archivists (ACA) certification exam. Participants are encouraged to share tips and tricks for studying for the exam and reflect on the process and benefits of certification.
We welcome everyone to join or keep up with our chat using the #snaprt hashtag on Twitter. The SNAP Section Twitter account (@SNAP_Section) will pose the following questions:
- What were your reasons for deciding to pursue (or not pursue) ACA certification?
- What are the benefits (tangible and/or perceived) for becoming ACA certified?
- What are some study tips/goals you have for taking the exam?
- What are some of the best readings to prepare for the exam?
- For those who have studied for and taken the exam, what surprised you about the process and the exam? Any last words of wisdom?
If you would like to have a discussion topic included in this chat, please send it to @SNAP_Section on Twitter, submit it through the anonymous form on the SNAP chat webpage or e-mail the SNAP Senior Social Media Coordinator at coletw@jmu.edu.
Here some resources related to next week's chat you may want to check out. Please share additional resources using #snaprt on Twitter or through the SNAP section SAA listserv.
