Records Management and Archive Administration

For this class I had to complete 4 different assessment tasks, they were a short essay on what a record is, a report on the Water Safety Corporation, a group assignment creating an archival management plan, and a presentation on the plan.

Tihsi class helped me with remembering what I had learnt in other classes regarding records and the need for a correct archiving and records management system.The creation of a records and archival management plan was something entirly new to me. I had never thad to create one before and I think that it is a very important part of the course. Records and information managment is what this program is about and all students should be able to tell which records are vital to the companies survival and how all records should be managed on a day to day basis and during a disaster.

The lecture slides and assignment sheets made it easier to figure out the layout for the records management and disaster recovery plan. The Classes were a bit long, three hours was not needed to cover all of the material and there was some over lap in the content of some lectures from previous courses, such as content management and knowledge management technologies.

Overall the most interesting and important parts from this course was learning how to create a disaster recovery plan and discover the vital records within a company.
I recieved a HD for this course.
