Key competencies developed through this program

Auto-populated·from NSX Competency Framework

Mastery: developing (Level 2)(based on Certificate)

  • Filing classification schemes — apply consistently across multiple content types and user criteria with minimal oversight in a busy administrative office.
  • Document management software — use routinely to enter, update, and retrieve electronic records efficiently in a paperless or hybrid office environment.
  • Computerized filing reports — generate on a scheduled basis to reflect current status of materials checked in or out across departmental records systems.
  • Outdated or superseded materials — identify and remove from active files by applying established retention schedules and legal disposal guidelines.
  • File retrieval requests of moderate complexity — fulfill accurately and promptly by navigating both physical and digital storage systems independently.
  • New categories or subcategories within existing filing structures — create as necessary when incoming material types fall outside current classification guidelines.
  • Electronic mail software — use to communicate file request statuses, delivery confirmations, and record updates to authorized staff across departments.
  • Information from multiple departments — gather, reconcile, and consolidate into unified filing records while managing competing priorities during peak workloads.
  • Routine written correspondence related to records requests — draft clearly and accurately using standard office suite software with limited review needed.
  • Active and inactive storage areas — maintain in an organized and compliant condition by periodically transferring materials according to file maintenance schedules.
