Apologies for any cross-postings

AIIM First Canadian Chapter is excited to offer our next set of four educational workshops that will continue the journey to providing your organization with the knowledge and awareness to better manage your content. Delivered by industry specialists within leading ECM firms, these sessions will provide valuable insight to common challenges faced by organizations like yours, best practices on how to address, and steps to get there.  Join us for the whole series!

This is the first workshop in the four-part series, which will be presented by Brendan Reid, on DIY Taxonomy Overview.
Any document management system is missing a key ingredient: the taxonomy.  The system comes with many features, but requires you to design and implement the access control, inheritance, metadata fields, and folder structure yourself.

There is no guide provided by the vendor, yet making an incorrect decision in the beginning can cripple a system within a year if volume was under-estimated, too many folders where required, or the security inheritance is too complicated.   Additional features such as project teams, version control, and links can quickly turn good intentions into chaos similar to a network share disaster.

To drive the most out of the investment made in the system, this session will provide key direction on how to avoid common pitfalls, while saving time by avoiding any taxonomy rebuilds.
