Rim was founded in 1945 and adopted its present name in 1996. Rim has around 500 members from all over Sweden; communicators who produce staff magazines and/or other inhouse media. Together we represent over 700 staff journals with a combined circulation figure of about 50 million copies (1999).

The main objectives of the association are to encourage good inhouse communications, and to increase the inhouse editors' proficiency through training courses and seminars. The association imparts information about the purpose of inhouse communications and about those who specialise in this field. The organisation represents the Swedish staff magazines and other inhouse media at international level and stimulates discussion about staff magazines and other inhouse media among its members.

Rim's services:

• The association offers a range of training courses.

• A two-day conference is held at least once a year.

• All members receive a quarterly magazine "Redaktören" ("The editor").

• Our website offers updated information about the association, its training courses and conferences.

• Annual award competition "Bästa personaltidning" (The Best Staff Magazine).

• "Ljuspennan", annual award competition run in collaboration with Sveriges Informationsförening and Centrum för personal & utveckling. The award goes to the company/organization with the best inhouse communication scheme.
