Capacity Building for Records Management Officers
Ever realized that beyond the papers, technical exams, short courses and attendance to conferences gives your staff a better and more improved understanding on how to handle work, staff and clients.
The ‘joy of empowerment’ is addictive as any drug. The key to good teaching is to find that place between encouragement and critique where the student learns what they must do and gains the confidence to do it. (Robin Baratta)
While tertiary education equips one with the necessary papers to get the job, with the HR enabling them to get quality induction, the route to being a successful employee is being able to build your capacity in your area of specialization.
In records management the constant changes in the field require one to be abreast with the changes.
In most workplaces, one is lucky to secure one chance to attend a conference, workshop or even a seminar, while in 
others it takes a lifetime. In the field of records management, a year in the dark without getting such opportunities means missed education, quality practical training, networking opportunity among others. Attending them offers an opportunity to develop new professional relationships, meet new friends, gain knowledge and become more successful in your career.
