Physical Records & Registry Management

Learn how to organise, track, and manage paper-based records and registries.

Overview

Many African organisations still rely on paper. Our training teaches registry staff and records officers how to design and run efficient physical records systems: filing schemes, reference numbers, tracking, and retrieval. Participants learn inventory and appraisal, file classification, registry reorganisation, and how to introduce barcode or simple tracking tools. We also cover when and how to prepare for digitization or off-site storage so that physical and digital practices work together.
