Certificate/Diploma in professional studies: Records and information management

The Certificate / Diploma in Professional Studies: Records and Information Management is a joint venture by the University of Liverpool and The National Archives to provide a university-accredited award programme for government staff (and was formerly known as the rm3 partnership).

This programme offers a unique opportunity to acquire a qualification in records and information management specifically geared to the government environment. It will be of benefit both to those working directly in records management and to those working with government records in some related capacity; it is also of direct relevance to records staff in the wider public sector. The Certificate award is suitable for those who wish to gain an introduction to records management topics, and progression to the Diploma will allow students to deepen their existing skills and knowledge. Single topics may be available as stand-alone modules.

The National Archives strongly encourages all government staff working with records to consider undertaking this programme.
