About This Course

Records retention—and destruction—can be an absolute nightmare without a well-thought-out and structured plan that's strictly followed. Join our insightful webinar to master the art of drafting and maintaining records retention policies/programs for organizations operating across multiple jurisdictions.

Retention and management of records is more complicated than just deciding what to keep and for how long. In what form should records be kept? Should we keep more than what the regulations require? If so, what? What about possible litigation needs?

Our presenter has, for decades, advised organizations of all shapes and sizes on the law and technology of records retention. He will guide you through the best practices essential for developing a robust retention policy, tailored to meet diverse compliance requirements.

We'll delve into strategic methods to implement and enforce records retention policies within your and your clients’ organizations, enabling you to be prepared for eDiscovery in civil lawsuits and regulatory investigations.

Additionally, further complicating retention issues are the myriad agency regulations and federal and state laws that often overlap—and sometimes conflict—causing a lack of clarity about what exactly is required for the compliant retention of information.

Register today to transform your approach to records retention and drill down on your organization’s compliance and security in this rapidly changing legal and technological landscape.
