Course summary
We teach archives and records management by focusing on the core principles, theory and practice that underpin these disciplines. Our focus is very much on a mix of the theoretical and the practical. You must be working or volunteering in an appropriate professional environment both prior to and throughout your studies so you can apply what you are learning. You will develop an understanding of record keeping practice and tradition. You'll gain an in-depth knowledge of the management of archives and will learn to apply this knowledge either in the public sector or in commercial or specialist environments. We'll also give you a comprehensive training in the creation and management of current and semi-current records. You’ll receive a lot of online content right from the start and benefit from our flexible teaching model that allows students to take semesters off and learn from subject experts.
Professional accreditation
Accredited by the Archives and Records Association UK and Ireland and by Records and Information Management Professionals Australia
Careers:
The PG Cert will enable you to work in the archival sector, perhaps as an archival assistant, for example, but it is not the professionally-recognised qualification. The Archives and Records Association stipulates that the professional Postgraduate qualification is the Postgraduate Diploma or Masters.
