Whole records lifecycle: strategies for managing tomorrow’s archives today
Speakers: Noeleen Schenk & Siobhan King, Metataxis
Online - Thursday 25th September 2025 - 12.00noon to 1.00pm
The ability to manage your data and records effectively throughout the full lifecycle is crucial in supporting your service - not only to find and extract value from your information – but also to meet your regulatory and compliance obligations.
Join us for an insightful and interactive session where we delve into some of the challenges of governing records throughout their whole lifecycle from creation to archive. We will delve into some of the key records management practice deficits which significantly impact the ability to effectively develop and manage an archive. Our presenters will share some key learnings from recent experiences, revealing ways to define and successfully introduce a records management strategy, and how the both records and archives management need to be viewed holistically to ensure that organisations meet their compliance obligations.
