Document Control - Virtual Learning
Why Attend
With the introduction of new technology that enables us to communicate in many different and innovative ways, it is more important than ever that the documents, data and information contained in your organization are properly managed. Many documents may need to be retained long after you have left the organization, and in some cases more than 50 years. Managing data throughout its life relies on effective people, processes and technology.
This course is delivered through a 4-element framework that defines the purpose of the work being completed; discovers the rules that the work has to abide by; develops different methods and processes using new and existing technology; and delivers education and learning to co-workers and to those who will be responsible for ensuring that the documents are maintained throughout their life.
