The National Archives provides information and records management training courses for people working in Australian Government agencies. These courses are customised to the Australian Government environment and relate very specifically to the legislative framework and requirements within our government. Although we occasionally accept participants from non-government organisations who work closely with our agencies, the courses are not suitable for non-Australian Government agencies or organisations.
The National Archives offers the following in records management training:
A package to teach Australian Government employees about their records management responsibilities and obligations. It is available both as an eLearning module and as a PowerPoint presentation with a presenter's guide.
A one-day workshop for records managers and staff.
A practical full-day training course for sentencing staff, contractors and their supervisors.
This interactive workshop explores the steps involved in developing a records authority for your agency.
