As part of a long-term strategy to help its members with career development, the Institute of Management Accountants has just announced that it has entered into an agreement with HR giant Robert Half to offer IMA members a multitude of career placement benefits.

Half will be known as the IMA's 'National Career Partner' for the organization's 70,000 members and 300 chapters.

At the present time, Half is scheduled to develop electronic access to job searches and resume postings, an IMA-member only career assessment tool, and there will be other features as well as a result of this agreement.

In a published release, IMA President Frank Minter said, 'Having RHI as our 'National Career Partner' strengthens our existing certification and membership programs, and will allow IMA members special access to RHI's outstanding career development resources.'
