‘Beyond Y2K’ clean management training*

Helping your people to keep your organisation ‘Y2K clean’, even after you have become Y2K compliant. As Australia’s leading training provider in both IT and Professional Development skills, Drake understands that achieving Y2K compliance is a fundamental concern to all Australian organisations.

The Millennium Bug is probably the biggest business challenge in recent times. Think you’ve got it all under control? Think again.

Organisations and companies throughout Australia are investing millions of dollars ensuring systems and procedures are reviewed, monitored, tested and adjusted to avoid problems on 1 January 2000.

The potential for serious business interruption and the need for good corporate governance, means it is an issue that must be addressed.

Becoming Year 2000 compliant only occurs when all aspects of a business are deemed to have completed all tasks in respect of the business’s Y2K Compliance project &endash; Y2K practitioners refer to this condition as ‘becoming clean’.

But becoming clean is only part of the challenge. Ensuring the continued maintenance of this status is referred to as Clean Management and it involves staff at all levels.

Drake Training, in conjunction with the Victorian Minister for Planning and Local Government, Robert Maclellan, is launching ‘Clean Management Training’ to Local Government in a breakfast seminar on 6 September at Melbourne Town Hall.

The launch to Local Government is a national first of various industry launches that Drake Training will be running over the next month.
