This autumn, Aslib has added a number of new courses to its training events: Building and Deploying a Corporate Taxonomy - 4th November 2004 (www.aslib.com/training/4/25.html) A Corporate Taxonomy is the backbone of an organization’s information architecture. Whether the focus is on records management, document management or knowledge management, a Corporate Taxonomy is key to effective storage and retrieval. A Corporate Taxonomy is different from a subject taxonomy in that it is a taxonomy of business activities. Corporate Taxonomies are therefore specific to an organisation and have to be custom-built. This interactive workshop uses a blend of presentation, discussion and practical exercises to explain the purposes of a Corporate Taxonomy and to introduce delegates to technologies, techniques and tools for building and deploying them Are you in Copyright heaven or hell? - A Series of Evening Workshops at Aslib's offices in London (www.aslib.com/training/4/21.html) Three new evening workshops have been added to our portfolio of evening Copyright events: - Electronic Copyright – 25 November 2004 - Copyright Update – 2 December 2004 - The International Dimension: Copyright doesn’t stop at the border – 16 December 2004 Introduction to Records Management – 25 November 2004 (www.aslib.com/training/4/17.html) and Records Survey – 26 November 2004 (www.aslib.com/training/4/24.html) This half-day course links with the one day course "Introduction to Records Management". It is designed to give delegates an understanding of a key records management tool - the records survey. Records surveys enable information specialists to inventory records so that they can identify issues within their organisation and gather data to plan for resolution. The course is particularly relevant if you are planning to meet Freedom of Information requirements. Interviewing Skills (half day workshop)- 2 December 2004 (www.aslib.com/training/2/20.html) Recruiting new staff and management isn’t about taking on someone who ‘interviews well’. It’s about seeing how they will fit in with the team and the organisations culture as well as the skills, knowledge, experience and behaviours that they can bring to that organisation. This workshop will introduce you to a structured approach but will also give you the tools to take back to the workplace and ensure that your selection and recruitment of new employees is fair, effective and enables you to get it right every time.
