Records Classification and Retention Schedule

The University-wide records classification plan and retention schedule is known as the University Records Schedule (URS).

 

This Schedule provides a structure and guidelines for the University to manage its departmental, faculty's and centre's records, both in paper and electronic format.  It determines:

  • how to classify records;

  • how long the records must be kept;

  • how records should be disposed of, and;

  • when records reach their defined retention period. 

​

The URS consists of 12 sections based on the common functions of the University (subject to review).
