At ALGIM we've been involved in information management for decades. We know how complex it can be, so we've worked closely with Kerri Siatiras, an independent consultant and IM expert, to develop three great courses for local government IM professionals.

Following on from our popular Introduction to IM and Recordkeeping Course, ALGIM has developed a brand-new Archives Management for Local Authorities Course.
This is an intermediate-level course for those who already know the basics of archives and information management.

Time: Seven 90 minute sessions
Cost: $550+gst per person

"The breadth of topics covered was over the entire span of records and gave me some good ideas to follow up within our organisation as both an archivist and member of digital transformation steering group. Kerri's experience of both records and archives, as well as working with large institutions, was of great help when asking targeted questions." "I have to say that I really enjoyed the opportunity to get to know the basics of what good IM & Record Keeping is all about. There was a lot that I did not already know, which will help to provide a new lens in the way we look at IM here at GWRC. Thanks again Kerri!" "Kerri is a fantastic trainer and it is the first course I have really enjoyed." "The presenter has excellent knowledge and delivery" | "The pace of the Local Authorities archives management course was excellent and having a session every couple of days encouraged me to complete my homework promptly, so it was not able to fall off my radar." "All aspects of the workshop were valuable, however I particularly found the classification structures, metadata and the discussion about key legislations and standards most valuable." "I really enjoyed learning about all the layers/aspects of records management, some of which I had not known of before but made sense and added depth. Thank you!" "Really enjoyed the course and learnt some very valuable information." "The workbooks were and will continue to be a valuable reference
