[1 CPE] Silos are for Grain, Not Information

  Presented by INTERFACE Advisory Council & ARMA Arizona

Fifty years ago, the corporate Records and Information Management (RIM) department dealt with paper, file cabinets, and boxes in warehouses; microfiche was considered high-tech. The Information Technology (IT) department ran a mainframe computer in the basement that crunched financial numbers; a terminal in the cashier’s office was considered high-tech. And never the twain would meet. Today, such segregation of corporate functions is not only unnecessary, but it could also be counterproductive or even dangerous. RIM and IT represent distinct, and equally valuable, “mindsets,” but they must work together with Privacy, Security, Compliance, Legal, Human Resources, and even Marketing under comprehensive Information Governance (IG) and Information Lifecycle Management strategies. These strategies align all aspects of data creation (capture), gathering (collaboration), management (retention/storage), circulation (version control), security, legal holds/discovery, and final disposition or archiving with organizational mission, policies, and goals.

Three members of the Arizona chapter of the Association of Records Management and Administration International (ARMA), representing three different types of organizations, discuss how RIM and IT can break down legacy silos and work together to achieve information governance – and the value of ARMA membership.

  • Vice President, ARMA Arizona | Tanesha Charity, Manager, Administrative Services, Valley Metro

[1 CPE] Data Literacy: No One is Data Literate. No One.

  Presented by John Ladley • Data Governance Author & EIM Leader

The new topic of the year is data literacy. In this session, you will learn how to use education to increase data literacy at all levels to reduce the mismanagement of data. Topics that will be covered include:

  • Fundamentals of data – leadership, management, and all areas of organizations need to accept that they need to understand some new things. No one is data literate.
  • Acting accordingly – where are we not acting correctly and how do we fix it.
  • What do I need to do – this starts with the individual.

From there, John will offer some practical steps to acquire true engagement and data literacy in the process.

[1 CPE] The Privacy Roadmap: What You Need to Know About Data Privacy Now and Moving Forward

  Presented by INTERFACE Advisory Council

First, GDPR came into law in the European Union. Then in January of 2020, the California Consumer Privacy Act took effect. Privacy laws are now a reality for all IT professionals to deal with. Are you sharing any data with third parties? How is your data stored? Have you verified all the needed compliance regulations for data in the cloud? These are just some of the many questions IT professionals need to be ready for when it comes to the current state of data privacy.

Join the INTERFACE Portland Advisory Council for a discussion on these topics and more. We will discuss setting up the right program for your operation. There will also be tips shared from handling the newest privacy laws and how these items differ from traditional cyber security preparations. Our panel of local IT leaders will offer their experiences from the last couple of years with the rapid growth in data privacy laws and how it affects the IT industry.
