Abstract. This article considers the process of transition from traditional to electronic document flow in educational institutions. The analysis of functions and processes within the framework of the automated information system of an educational organization is carried out. Key approaches to the implementation of electronic document management from the point of view of the system approach are considered. Based on practical experience, the authors propose the concept of organizing and conducting training in the system of professional development of specialists. Automation of document management in educational institutions is especially relevant in such processes as accounting of incoming and outgoing correspondence, processing of internal documents, coordination of administrative and contractual documents, as well as control of execution of orders. Implementation of electronic document management systems (EDMS) requires integration of directories into a single data repository and synchronization of document processing with other business processes of the institution.
