Foundation of Archives and Records Management
About This Course
All organizations have accumulated and continue to accumulate records and information as evidence of their activities. Many organizations are incurring costs in large quantities of records generated, equipment and storage space. Most of the personnel managing records today have limited or no specialized training in the technical management of records. This information can only be a valuable resource if it is available to the right person, at the right time, in the right place and at the least possible cost. This calls for specialized skills and training on the part of records operatives. In line with international records management standards, this course will impart fundamental skills and knowledge on the principles and practices that govern the cost-effective creation, maintenance and use and disposal of information.
