Why Records Management Training?

Did you know that the records and information stored by your organisation have a life cycle all of their own? It starts when records are created and ends once they are properly destroyed or disposed of (unless they are to be preserved permanently in certain circumstances). In between these two phases, the identification, classification, security, and tracking of records all form a part of what is called 'records management', and it's important that employees who handle important information are given effective records management training.

With good records management training, staff members will learn how to comply with the law when it comes to storing, handling, and keeping information safe for lengths of time.

Get in Touch Technical Requirements
What are the four stages of a record’s lifecycle?
Recognising the life cycle of a record is an important part of effective record management. It enables businesses to keep track of how records are created and when they are used and disposed of. The first 90 days of the record are when 90% of the use takes place. After the 90 days period, records tend to be stored away. This process is known as the lifecycle of a record and it is made up of four stages: create, maintain, store, and dispose of.
What is a records management policy?
A records management policy sets out your businesses’ approach to records management. It is designed to address the overall commitment, the role of records management, links to relevant policies and documents, staff roles and responsibilities, and monitoring of compliance. Having a robust records management policy in place ensures that businesses are prepared to maintain records to a high standard and mitigate the risks.
What is a record?
A record is a key element vital for supporting day-to-day business activity and decisions. It could include emails, paper documents or electronic files documenting business activity. Data and information are also held as records, such as customer details, customer activity and invoices. Policy and procedure documents are also often classed as records.
