Due to the precautions being taken in response to the coronavirus, this session has been cancelled. 

Hopefully it can be rescheduled later in the year.

A records classification scheme and a retention schedule are integral parts of a Records and Information Management (RIM) Program. Without a classification scheme, records will be disorganized and difficult (or impossible) to find. Without a retention schedule, records destruction/deletion practices will be arbitrary and ad hoc, potentially contravene legislated requirements for keeping records, and likely fail to safeguard an organization’s archival records.

This session provides an introduction to developing and implementing a business classification scheme and a legally defensible records retention schedule.
