This full-day workshop will provide a basic introduction to electronic records management. The morning session will briefly discuss the importance of ensuring authenticity, reliability, and integrity of e-records to reduce risk, life-cycle management, the role of metadata, and the difference between official and transitory e-records. This will be followed by a basic overview of the special challenges of e-records, and managing change, including defining business, technical and functional requirements, developing metadata, and moving existing records or cleaning up shared drives.

The afternoon session will introduce current trends and standards for enterprise content management, and familiarize students with specific content management modules such as imaging, electronic document management, records management, workflow/business process management, and web content management. Finally, the requirements for building an infrastructure for an electronic records management system and software selection will be briefly covered.
