Successful Local Authorities understand that robust records management comes from the interaction between people, process and technology. RM Local bring them all together. Join us for intensive tutorials, case studies and seminars examining strategies and choices for all aspects of Records Management implementation in Local Government. 

An information society is one where all members of the community access local services, information and resources however they choose, challenging the boundaries of location, mobility, time and wealth.

Local Authorities must be "information minded" in their administration; managing information and its capture, storage, preservation, delivery and disposal in a way which supports the functions of modern government and safeguards the interests of all of us.

Strategic Records Management is fundamental for meeting the aims of modern government at a local level. Local Authorities must reconcile the needs of the community and the organisation with both the paper archive and electronic repository. This is essential for fulfilling statutory and regulatory obligations (FOI, EIRs, Data Protection), expediting decision making and internal processes, easing communication, collaboration and knowledge sharing, reinforcing the corporate memory bank and establishing both day to day information repositories as well as sustainable archives which are trustworthy.

If you're a Records Manager, Departmental Head, Information Officer, FOI practioner, IT Manager, e-Government Champion, Administrator, Policy Maker with a responsibility or interest in managing information in a local authority, attending RM Local could make a positive difference to your organisation's information strategy, project planning and implementation.
