In an age when agencies are generating and receiving paper and electronic records, the picture can grow fuzzy when addressing public records, state and federal requirements, technology options, and resource challenges. It's important for agencies to work smart, with procedures and practices that propel records and information management as a cost savings instead of a cost counter. This half-day class examines your agency's responsibility for managing records what the law says, the benefits of "the basics," conversion and storage options, and establishing agency-directed retention schedules that support effective business. This class is a must for agency custodians, record coordinators, and employees responsible for managing hardcopy and electronic files.
