Provo, UT, January 24, 2013 --(PR.com)-- Career Step, an online education company offering corporate learning solutions, is pleased to announce that its sponsorship of the American Health Information Management Association (AHIMA) Foundation played a vital role in the development of the new Health Information Management (HIM) Career Map.

"We greatly appreciate Career Step's philanthropic contribution," said Dr. Bill Rudman, Executive Director of the AHIMA Foundation and Vice President of Education Visioning for AHIMA."Their support was instrumental in developing this new tool, which we believe defines the profession like never before by showing where the HIM field is heading."

The tool offers a visual representation of a variety of HIM job titles and roles and their relationship with each other.
