Government Recordkeeping Training
Introduction to Records and Information Management in the Manitoba Government
This course takes approximately 40 minutes to complete. Once complete, you will be able to: identify government records, understand your responsibilities as a public servant, and recognize how records are managed in the Manitoba government.
This course is based on a version available in the Organization and Staff Development (OSD) Learning Management System. Public servants with access to that system should complete the version there so it registers as a completed course with OSD. This version will not track a user’s completion status.
