I suppose everyone will have a different view and I would like to suggest to
recipients that they view this product and make up their own minds. We did
and have procured it to use a basis for our FoI implementation. Quite
simply, it is the best product available that I am aware of and looks to
offer considerable benefits and is cheap in e-learning terms.

Subject: FOI e-learning -


With apologies for cross posting
*****************************************

This was advertised through the records-management-UK list a couple of
weeks ago, and on the basis of a £28 for 40 days trial offer I ordered
it! (Beats the £999 +VAT selling price).

The advice on publication schemes and records management, in which I'm
particularly interested, is extremely disappointing.  These sections (using
a video story format)concentrate  on 'public records' (not defined) and  on
a search made at The National Archives  via PROCAT, the example class
used=20 to illustrate use of a publication scheme - very odd. Even worse,
'TNA' is represented by, guess what, a dithery middle aged woman giving
our hero access to a variety of cardboard boxes.

Whoever is responsible for this at Masons clearly had no contact with
TNA,or if they did, were shouted down by the production team who wanted
to perpetuate an image of recordkeeping = dusty basement.  While the
use, construction and maintenance of publication schemes is discussed in
the reference text on the CD,  the most popular training element would
be the video and this is quite inadequate.    A great disappointment,
though it would be good to hear from people with an interest in other
parts of the FOIA whether other aspects of the Act are more
appropriately treated.
