Four Essential Best Practices of Document Management for Any Business Owner

Understand the importance of document management and learn best practices that apply.

Every organization uses some form of document management to store documents and other electronic content. Unfortunately, far too many organizations cannot find that same content when it is needed most. The content may reside in silos with varying levels of organization and oversight, or it may reside in a single location that has evolved into an unmanageable mess. This course will help business owners understand the importance of document management and will offer four best practices that apply to document management in any business. It will discuss the essential features of document management and the best ways to use those features. It will explore where documents can be stored as well as how document management makes it easier to comply with your various legal obligations. Finally, it will provide a roadmap for improving document management within your business.

  • You will be able to identify places to store your documents.
  • You will be able to identify legal and ethical considerations regarding document management.
