<strong>HL7</strong> <strong>V3</strong> <strong>RIM</strong> <strong>Certification</strong><br />
<strong>Exam</strong> <strong>Preparation</strong><br />
Required Knowledge<br />
<strong>HL7</strong> Version 3 <strong>RIM</strong> <strong>Certification</strong> exam is based on the Reference Information Model (<strong>RIM</strong>)<br />
model 2.11 (the version of the <strong>RIM</strong> on <strong>V3</strong> Normative Edition 2006). The knowledge required<br />
to pass the exam can be obtained by self study of the <strong>RIM</strong> and its associated normative<br />
structural vocabulary as well as through participation in the <strong>HL7</strong> education sessions, and field<br />
work implementing <strong>HL7</strong> Version 3 artifacts.<br />
• Candidates will need to be able to read <strong>RIM</strong> models which are expressed using Unified<br />
Modelling Language (UML). Candidates not familiar with UML information models may<br />
find review of UML materials helpful in understanding the <strong>RIM</strong> models.<br />
• Candidates will be asked to demonstrate proficiency at reading the <strong>RIM</strong> constructs,<br />
knowledge of its content, and understanding of its design and application.<br />
• The material covered is contained in the <strong>HL7</strong> Version 3 Reference Information Model<br />
(<strong>RIM</strong>) model 2.11 as documented in <strong>V3</strong> Normative Edition 2006.<br />
