Presentation

Archival records can be written, such as text or plans; oral, such as radio recordings; visual, such as photographs; or three-dimensional, such as models. Their media include paper, audio and video tapes, CDs and DVDs, computer hard drives and servers.

The widespread digitisation of documents goes hand in hand with the development of electronic administration. Digital formats are therefore increasingly becoming the norm for archival records and information alike.

Managing electronic records requires an electronic archiving system and a defined archiving policy.

This course connects the business and technological aspects of an electronic archiving project through practical activities and the application of relevant standards.
