Museum 101 Introduces:
The course format offers a combination of lecture, group discussion and exercises. It provides an excellent opportunity for new museum board members, new staff, consultants and government staff to receive a good overview of what museums are all about and the role they play in society. It is also an opportunity for mid- and late-career professionals to learn changes in the sector.
Having worked with museums in four provinces, Karin brings a combination of education and practical experience to the workshop, providing real-world examples to the discussions and exercises. You can read her bio here.
This course includes an optional homework assignment. Participants receive a course certificate if the homework is successfully completed.
The workshop will combine formal instruction, group discussion, and a graded take-home assignment.
