This Electronic Document Management and Digital Archiving: EDRMS, Digitisation and Preservation session in Paris runs from Monday 6 September to Friday 10 September 2027 (week 36, Q3 2027). It is the 2nd of 2 dates in Paris in 2027, at a fee of 23,500 SAR, the same for each of them. Registration is open for this date. It is held in person at Right Bank business hotel.
Many organisations have bought document management systems and scanned years of paper, yet staff still save files to personal drives, versions multiply and scanned images cannot be searched or relied on as evidence. Digital records also decay silently when formats age and systems are replaced. This Core Concept course equips document and archive practitioners to configure an electronic document and records management system, run reliable digitisation and preserve digital records to international standards. Participants work hands-on in lab exercises and leave with an EDRMS Configuration and Digital Preservation Plan.
Course Objectives
Distinguish document and records management functions and evaluate systems against ISO 16175-1 requirements
Design metadata schemas, content types and file formats that keep digital records usable and trustworthy
Configure document libraries, retention labels, versioning and approval workflows in an EDRMS
Plan and quality-control digitisation projects that produce reliable digital copies of paper records
Apply OAIS packaging, fixity checks and PDF/A formats to preserve digital records over time
Produce an EDRMS Configuration and Digital Preservation Plan for one's own department
Target Audience
Records and document control officers who capture, classify and retrieve documents daily
EDRMS and SharePoint administrators configuring libraries, metadata and retention
Archive and digitisation staff running scanning and conversion projects
Information management officers supporting migration from shared drives to managed systems
Administrative coordinators responsible for departmental filing and approvals

Why Attend This Course
Return to work with an EDRMS Configuration and Digital Preservation Plan that can be implemented in one department
Gain hands-on practice configuring a records library rather than only hearing about one
Avoid the digitisation and migration mistakes that leave scanned or moved records unusable as evidence
Exchange approaches with document and archive practitioners from other sectors and countries
Conclusion
A document management system delivers value only when it is configured around the records it holds and the evidence they must provide years later. The course moves from inventorying content and assessing preservation maturity, through the OAIS model and metadata and format standards, to hands-on configuration of libraries, retention labels and workflows, and then to digitisation, signature and migration risks. The final day's lab builds turn this into an EDRMS Configuration and Digital Preservation Plan for each participant's department.
Electronic Document Management and Digital Archiving: EDRMS, Digitisation and Preservation runs in Paris over 5 days, with 2 upcoming dates in Paris. The course fee is 23,500 SAR.
