Why select this training course?

Records are essential to the success of every institution. Professional institutions are constantly saddled with data, information, and insights from governance to business. To do this effectively, they must follow due process in keeping these records. There are numerous reasons why corporate and governmental institutions archive and keep records in an organization. Organizations and government agencies often deploy archiving and record-keeping to assess present performances in the context of past events, determine if the trajectory of an institution is set on the correct precedence, and, most importantly, use data as a means for future reference. However, it suffices to note that institutions with a flawed archiving process and record-keeping lose the reality of institutional awareness and ultimately risk fading out.

Why is record management vital in an organization?

Record Management ensures that the essential records in an organization are identified and kept, and it also sees that non-vital records are disposed of accordingly.

How are records different from archives?                         

Records refer to information entries stored temporarily or permanently using a particular platform, while archives embody the permanent storage of records for historical references.
