Managing Paper and Digital Records
Thursday 11 November 2004
Venue: The Meeting Place, 153 Drummond Street, London NW1 2PB
This training course is a more in-depth handling of the principles and
practice of records management in the modern hybrid paper and digital
environment. Thus the course sets out the principles and practices
behind good records management regardless of the media of the
material.
Managing Paper and Digital Records builds on the Records Management
Overview session in the Basic Archive Skills Training Day and assumes
this baseline understanding of the subject. Participants who have not
attended the Basic Archive Skills training will be provided with
relevant pre-course reading. With this proviso, this training is
suitable for anyone setting up a records management programme and for
all staff working in records centres.
Morning sessions cover the necessary components of a Records
Management programme and an overview of particular issues such as
legislation, standards, storage and preservation and how to deal with
paper and digital systems in an integrated way. In the afternoon there
will be a case study to illustrate practical implementation of a
records management system followed by workshops.
This course has been re-designed for 2004, reflecting both feedback
from participants and the on-going experience and research of the
Directors. Its focus on a case study and workshops together with an
initial quiz is intended to deepen participants knowledge and
understanding and to give a thorough grounding in the challenges and
techniques of managing records in the modern hybrid environment. The
course is presented and facilitated by Margaret Crockett and Janet
Foster.
The fee of £129.25 (with VAT) includes a course handbook with
supporting notes and useful sources for further information. The fee
also includes lunch (with vegetarian option, please let the directors
know if you have any other special dietary needs) and tea and coffee.
