OL 5153 - Records Management Certificate

Course Description

The Records Management Online Training Program will give you a basic overview of records management terminology, concepts, and procedures to successfully manage records in today's offices. Regardless of the media on which the record is stored, it must be properly managed to be an asset to the organization. Another important component of a professional records management program is legality issues. A comprehensive, legally-sound records retention schedule must be developed and strictly followed so that the company is not held liable for problems that could have been avoided in the first place. This program will assist you in making those decisions based upon certain characteristics of the records. Also, you’ll learn to code and file according to the rules established by the Association of Records Managers and Administrators (ARMA). Upon registering, you're given an initial six months to complete the program. Should you need more time, you may request a six-month extension at no additional charge. Transcript available. This is a Gatlin online course that is self-paced and can be started at your convenience. For more information, visit careertraining.ed2go.com/harford
