This module is an introduction to flow, Curtin’s Enterprise Content Management initiative that will provide Curtin staff with an easier and better way of finding, using, sharing and keeping documents. It covers preparation actions that staff can apply within their areas to assist with a smoother rollout of flow hub, flow docs and flow web.
University Information Management strongly recommends that each area of the organisation prepares for the implementation of flow. This will and make it easier for people to adjust to the new ways of finding, using, sharing and keeping documents.

The quantity and ease with which email or email messages can be sent, received, duplicated, changed and deleted poses a number of challenges for us in our day to day work. This module is designed to provide you with easier and better ways to help you to find, use, share and keep your email.
