Amanda Cossham will be presenting on Professional development and education – identifying and meeting information needs on Wednesday
New Zealand’s records managers face a unique educational and continuing educational environment.
As a consequence any continuing professional development may be considered by practitioners as delivering the knowledge required to do the basics of the job as well as the keeping up with changes and building on the fundamental knowledge.
Records managers everywhere – at every level – need accessible, sound, reliable information as the cornerstone of professional development.
This presentation will identify and evaluate the sources of professional information available to records managers, and considers the impact of these sources on skill levels across the profession.
It will look at the balance between knowledge obtained through recordkeeping education and knowledge obtained through continuing professional development.
