Compliance Audits: A Consistency Checkup
Thursday, July 22, 2010
11:00 AM – 12:00 Noon PDT

Organizations today are under increasing scrutiny to provide proof of transparency in all their transactions and dealings. This can best be accomplished with an audit of the organization's strategy for creating, maintaining, accessing and retaining or properly disposing of all company information assets. The strategy used in developing the controls and processes as well as the rules and procedures created must be reviewed from time-to-time for consistency and completion. This webinar will address the issues regarding compliance and answer these fundamental questions:

  • What is Compliance and why it is mandatory?
  • How can your organization meet these requirements?
  • What happens during an Audit?
  • How can Audit Findings be used constructively to develop process improvements?

Presented by Scott Murchison, CRM of Kaizen InfoSource LLC.

The World According to GARP®!
August - TBD
11:00 AM – 12:00 PM PST

As a discipline, records and information management (RIM) has evolved from an administrative function into a senior position focused on governance, policy, process and the use of technology to manage records and information in all media formats. Progressive organizations are proactively managing records and information assets in order to improve efficiency, reduce risk, and ensure compliance with an expanding set of legal, regulatory, ethical and/or information security/privacy requirements.

ARMA International (the premier association of records management professionals) has developed GARP® (Generally Accepted Recordkeeping Principles) as a means to objectively measure the maturity of an organization’s records management program.

  • Learn the eight governing principles, each supported by five characteristic levels, which can be used to evaluate the maturity of an organization’s RIM program.
  • Understand how GARP provides a roadmap to improve a records management program.
