Course Overview
With the advent of digital transformation in business scenarios, organizations and their managers are surrounded with loads of information. A defined and structured approach is required to deal with the content and its collection, delivery, retrieval as well as governance.
What is an enterprise content management system?
Enterprise Content Management is a set of systematic processes and tools that enables the business to gather, organize, reserve and deliver relevant information to its stakeholders. ECM has carved its way into business management as a variety of content is made available to deal with while making business decisions. These contents may be in the form of images, documents, text, audio and other multimedia. Merely having a repository of the relevant content is not enough. The organization should also have adequate set up to ensure smooth administration of digital content and its entire lifecycle from creation to deletion.
How to form appropriate categories for proper organization of content? Does the content need to have external collaboration? What functional prerequisites should be present in an ECM system? How to utilize ECM to decrease organizational risk? These issues accompany handling of content which requires well acquaintance with concepts of ECM. A dynamic ECM ensures timely availability and access of information to decision makers all the while making the process secure and cost effective. Wide utility of ECM in an organisation has made it a popular sought-after training requirement.
