BASIC ARCHIVE SKILLS TRAINING DAY
12th November 2003
Venue: The Meeting Place, 153 Drummond Street, London NW1 2PB
Our well-known Introductory Course is aimed at people working with
archives and records without formal recordkeeping qualifications
who feel that they would benefit from some basic training in the
principles of managing records and archives. The day includes five
core sessions focusing on the main areas of archives and records
management, differing in length as appropriate. By chairing and
facilitating throughout the day, the course directors ensure that
the program is integrated and flows well. Sessions will include
ample time for questions and a high level of participation is
encouraged.
The course fee of £117.50 (including VAT) also includes lunch
(with vegetarian option, please let the directors know if you have
any other special dietary needs) and tea and coffee.
