With Apologies for cross-posting: Records Management and Digital Records 4th December 2002 Venue: The Meeting Place, 153 Drummond Street, London NW1 2PB The day is intended as a more in-depth handling of the principles and practice of records management, including the management of digital records. It builds on the Introduction to Records Management session in the Basic Archive Skills Training Day and is suitable for anyone setting up a records management programme and for all staff working in records centres. The morning focuses on records management generally and the afternoon is an overview of the challenges to managing digital records and solutions and strategies for successful management. The training day has been reviewed and revised again this year to reflect feedback from participants of the first delivery of this training day in Manchester last December, as well as the course directors' own evaluations. The day therefore assumes a basic grounding in the terminology, principles, and elements of records management and focuses on case studies and workshops to deepen knowledge and understanding and an overview of the challenges of managing digital records. The course fee of £110 (plus £19.25 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.
