Speakers:
Ms. Smith has been in the document management, imaging and records
management field for the past 18 years. Due to her varied background in
records management and technology, she has worked on many different
projects, such as imaging sales, implementation and support. When
imaging was not yet considered "legal," as part of her Master's
degree program, she spent one year researching the legalities that
constitute imaging, resulting in her becoming an expert in local, state
and federal laws and regulations that govern imaging. Ms. Smith has
extensive experience with the implementation, selling, installation,
training and support of document imaging systems, which include input,
output, storage, OCR, databases, indexing, and retrieval. She also has
extensive technical experience with imaging and all aspects of IT
departments and applications. Ms. Smith was invited to participate as a
Subject Matter Specialist (SME) for the most recent CDIA+ exam and a
