AF2.1 Develop procedures for accessing and amending data
AF2.2 Develop documentation rules
AF2.3 Maintain the security and safety of information
This unit is for archaeologists who are responsible for the upkeep of an organisation's archives, catalogues and index systems that are used by others, and people who are not information technology experts, but who do have responsibility for computerised and manual information systems.
Information systems are used throughout an organisation, and for a whole host of activities. To maintain the effectiveness and security of the information, it is necessary to establish some guidelines and procedures for accessing and amending the information. This unit covers developing guidelines and procedures for accessing the information system and for changing the information held in it; developing documentation rules which determine how the information should be structured; and maintaining the security and safety of information so that it is backed up and access to certain types of information is restricted.
