Enterprise Classification Scheme

The functional classification thesaurus is a tool designed for use in classifying, titling and indexing business records of the university and its component parts.  It records and standardises common language terms to be used for the description of business functions and activities performed by the university in order to provide a controlled vocabulary for records titling.

The classification may also be used to analyse desired recordkeeping outputs during the design of electronic business and information systems, and in the course of developing records disposal categories.

The Enterprise Classification Scheme is available here as an online database etc.

Please note that the ECS is not yet in the University template. We are experiencing technical difficulties with this and are working to get this fixed.
