About This Winnipeg ARMA Professional Development Certificate
Course
The
Winnipeg Chapter of ARMA International (the Association of Records

needs of Winnipeg-area and Canadian records management professionals

of ARMA is to provide quality high-level current-to-the-moment
professional records management education and training.
Are
you new to the profession of records and information management
(RIM)? Have you recently been asked to assume responsibilities
for records and information management but only have minimal formal
education or training to tackle that work? Or, are you an
experienced records management veteran with a determination to
stay as up-to-date as humanly possible in your knowledge of records
and information management? Whatever your present circumstances,
this comprehensive six-day three-seminar professional development
certificate course will meet your needs. It will include
an in-depth introduction to the profession of records and information
management. Included will be tried-and-proven, practical
approaches and strategies for developing and strengthening organization-wide
records management programs.
Carefully
review the extensive topics that will be included in the six full
days of this three-seminar program. Attendees will learn
about how to develop quality records management programs and how
to manage electronic and paper and all records. Participants
will learn how to develop and implement records retention programs,
develop state-of-the-art filing systems, and manage inactive and
vital records. A special focus will be on “imaging” and
on how to capitalize on both digital imaging and film-based (microfilm)
imaging technologies. Attendees will learn how to more effectively
manage and motivate records management personnel. And, all
participants will be introduced to a wide array of records management
resources.
