About us

The Association for Federal Information Resources Management (AFFIRM) is a 501(c)3 non-profit, volunteer, and educational organization whose overall purpose is to improve the management of information, and related systems and resources, within the Federal government. Founded in 1979, and based in the Washington, DC, area, AFFIRM's members include information resource management professionals from the Federal, academic, and industry sectors. AFFIRM has a long-standing record of developing relationships and collaborating with other organizations that also focus on connecting government, industry, and academia for learning opportunities and other efforts. In supporting this purpose, AFFIRM seeks to provide its members with professional development opportunities in three key focus areas. IT Education AFFIRM supports Information Technology educational opportunities by conducting seminars and related educational sessions where AFFIRM handles the entire event, by sponsoring seminars as part of larger events where AFFIRM coordinates the seminar content, and by promoting worthy events in the Information Technology field being conducted by others. Networking AFFIRM provides networking opportunities to its members by providing one of the largest virtual forums of IT professionals serving the Federal community. Interaction with Policymakers AFFIRM offers its members the opportunity to influence the development of IRM and IT policy in the Federal arena by providing a venue for members to interact with key policy development organizations as individuals, and not as members of their respective employing organizations.
