What people are saying……….

“Very informative and gave me more ideas to apply to the RM program. I have a better understanding and can figure many things out on my own.”

“This made record management much clearer and I have a better understanding of the responsibilities involved.”

“This course really helped me get some clarification on what is a vital record and what is not and the tools to begin to implement a plan for our office.”

  1. Would I be authorized to display the Vital Business Information in a classroom setting for our staff members?

    Thanks for your comment. I’ve asked the training team and here is their response:

    Agencies are welcome to use their registered connection in a conference room and invite other colleagues to attend the class sessions with them. However, we will not provide credit in NARA’s system and will not provide additional certificates. Only registered attendees will receive course credit and certificates.

  3. These classes sound very wonderfully productive! I am very excited about being able to learn more about Records Mgmt. and that the info is right at my fingertips! I am going to sign up. Thank you!
