UCA archivist Jimmy Bryant recently earned the title of Certified Archivist (CA) from the Academy of Certified Archivists, making him the first certified archivist in the history of UCA. Bryant first qualified to take the Academy’s certification exam and then passed it in Baton Rouge.
There are very few certified archivists in Arkansas, and Bryant’s accomplishment makes UCA one of only two four-year universities in the state with a certified archivist as its archive director.
