Information Governance & Records Management Strategy

Course Overview

Struggling to unlock the full potential of your organisation’s information while keeping it secure and compliant? This course equips business, compliance, and IT professionals with the tools and strategies to tackle these challenges head-on, transforming information management into a powerful asset. For business, compliance, and IT professionals grappling with the dual challenge of maximising information value and safeguarding organisational integrity, this course provides the strategic blueprint for effective information management.

Think of Information Governance (IG) as the rules, accountability, and oversight for how information is controlled throughout its life. Records Management (RM) is a subset of IG that focuses specifically on identifying, controlling, storing, and disposing of official business records. A record is information that provides evidence of business activities, decisions, or transactions. IG sets the rules. RM applies them to records.
