The AAO’s Professional Development Committee presents
Electronic Recordkeeping : Building a Modern Software-Ready Retention Schedule Suitable for Electronic Recordkeeping
This one-day workshop provides an overview of modern electronic recordkeeping concepts and techniques, and a high-level introduction to EDRMS (Electronic Records/Document Management Systems). You’ll learn new recordkeeping terminology and concepts, and you’ll “unlearn” many sacred traditional records management notions. With this course you’ll learn the new language of electronic records, understand the 7 core concepts, the critical difference between case and administrative records, how to automate recordkeeping processes to eliminate the need for end user participation, and how your retention schedule will need to change.
To fully and properly deploy a successful EDRMS, you’ll need to make your retention schedule “Software-Ready”. A software-ready retention schedule is structured to take full advantage of the recordkeeping automation you’ll need to deploy for a successful EDRMS. It is vastly different from a traditional schedule. Case record categories and event data must be carefully configured, and you’ll need to define and enable multiple retention rules for certain categories. And you’ll need to define specific strategic metadata in support of the retention rules. In this course you’ll learn how to adapt your retention schedule for a fully automated successful EDRMS deployment.
