This programme is designed to help business firms and organizations to plan and set up proper systems, policies and procedures to manage their organizational records in diverse formats/media in support of their corporate and business needs.

Every organization needs records. Records are created, kept and managed for many purposes: as a source of business information; as a basis for decision making; as records of policy or precedents; for accountability and auditing purposes; as evidence of legal rights and obligations, etc.

Records are not just instruments used to accomplish the work of an organization, they are also vital resources, like manpower, money and property, without which no organization can function properly. Similarly, as resources, they require constant managerial attention and management with professional expertise.

Administrators and officers who are responsible for strategic planning, resources allocation, office management and information management work will find this course most relevant to their works.
