Live Online Electronic Records and Information Management Training Course
Live online, instructor-led · next cohort Oct 26, 2026 · from USD 800
Lost files, uncontrolled shared drives and unclear retention rules expose organizations to legal risk, audit findings and poor decisions. Over five days you learn the records lifecycle in a digital environment, from creation and capture through classification, use, retention and disposition. Systems sessions cover electronic document and records management systems, enterprise content management, metadata, file plans, digitization and scanning standards, and digital preservation. You also examine compliance obligations under data protection and access-to-information laws, ISO 15489 records management principles, cybersecurity, access controls and information governance.
Case studies from government, banking, health and education show how institutions moved from paper to digital, and where those projects stalled. You will draft a file plan, a retention schedule and an implementation checklist for an EDRMS rollout, including change management and user adoption. Records managers, archivists, registry and documentation staff, ICT officers, compliance teams and administrators will find the content practical. Afterwards you can lead or support a digital records programme that keeps information secure, findable and legally defensible.

About this course
This advanced program strengthens capabilities in managing digital records within complex regulatory and operational environments. Furthermore, it enables a shift from fragmented manual systems toward integrated, technology-driven information governance frameworks.
The Electronic Records and Information Management Training Course builds the specialist capability required to plan, deliver and evaluate electronic records and information management in demanding, fast-moving operating environments. As expectations around accountability, efficiency and demonstrable results continue to rise, organizations increasingly depend on staff who can apply structured approaches rather than improvise. This certified programme combines proven methodology with hands-on application, covering enterprise content management, compliance, risk, and data governance and the analytical techniques that underpin sound professional judgement.
Throughout the programme, participants work through realistic scenarios drawn from public sector institutions, private enterprises, development organizations, and regulated professional environments, examining how electronic records and information management is applied in practice and where it most often breaks down. Delegates will develop practical skill in designing appropriate frameworks, selecting and applying the right tools for enterprise content management, interpreting findings, and communicating conclusions clearly to colleagues, management and external stakeholders. Sessions move deliberately from principles to application, so that each technique introduced is practised against a realistic problem before the programme moves on — strengthening both individual effectiveness and the wider capability of the organizations delegates return to.
