Organisations face increasing pressure to manage their records according to statutory and business requirements. As the use of electronic records and the deployment of electronic document and records management systems continue to increase, the core skills of the person responsible for records management become ever more important to the organisation. In many cases, appropriate data protection and FOI compliance will depend upon a good records management system.
This invaluable training session, led by Claire Johnson, examines core concepts of good records management practice.
Records Management 1 provides a thorough introduction into the fundamental concepts and principles of records management, including:
- introduction – basic concepts
- records management tools
- records lifecycle approach
- designing a file plan
- records destruction
- legal framework / compliance
- management of electronic records and email
Delegates who attend the Classroom sessions are encouraged to share their own experiences and ask questions throughout the day.
This course, taken together with Records Management 2 and Records Management 3, provides a thorough understanding of the entirety of the Records Management process.
This course can be used as credit towards gaining the Practitioner Certificate in Records Management.
