Public Record Office Victoria

📢 Brand new training now available

Get to know: AI and Recordkeeping is a practical introduction to using artificial intelligence responsibly in the workplace. This brand new short introductory module helps Victorian public sector staff understand where AI shows up in everyday tools, what risks it can introduce, and why good recordkeeping is essential for transparency, accountability, and trust.

Learners explore different types of AI, real-world government scenarios, and the recordkeeping practices that helps ensure AI use remains ethical, lawful, and well-documented.

As a Victorian public sector employee, you must manage records according to the Public Records Act 1973. Recordkeeping Essentials will help you understand your responsibilities and ensure proper recordkeeping. It’s for all employees, including those on contracts or working as volunteers. Let’s get started!

The Digital Recordkeeping training course offers a high-level overview of the key requirements for managing digital records. While closely aligned with PROV Standards, it’s designed to be accessible to those outside the records profession, helping you grasp the essentials, know where to start, and understand what to focus on.

The Novice to Know-How (N2KH) learning pathway aims to provide learners with the knowledge and skills to implement basic digital preservation workflows at their organisation. The creation of the learning pathway was funded by The National Archives (UK) as part of their “Plugged In, Powered Up” digital capacity building strategy for the UK Archives Sector. The learning pathway content and design was developed by the Digital Preservation Coalition (DPC) in consultation with The National Archives (UK).
