Making the Distinction
- Information Management is a discipline that directs and
supports effective and efficient management of information in an
organization from planning and systems development to disposal and/or
long-term preservation.
- Management of Information is an element of every job function
in the GoC that has to do with treating the information used or
produced in the course of performing the job duties as a strategic
business resource and in line with legal and policy requirements.
