Introduction to Heritage Interpretation online course begins July 3 on MuseumStudy.com
Interpretation is the most powerful communication process any historic or heritage site has available to communicate its message(s) to visitors!
It is in the interpretation of the sites story to visitors where the "heritage" of the site is brought to light. Interpretation makes the site come to life for the visitors, giving the site relevance and importance. It reveals to visitors, in powerful and memorable ways, the differences between "old" and historic.
Join instructor John Veverka for the course Introduction to Heritage Interpretation. The 4 week online course is an entry level interpretation course, the first in our series of interpretation courses. We will review the current state-of-the-art in interpretive philosophy, techniques and services, based on "outcome based" interpretation.

>From Robert Waller, Protect Heritage Corp., in association with National Museum of Denmark
Assessing and managing risks to your collections
A two-day workshop with Robert Waller, Protect Heritage Corp.
in association with National Museum of Denmark
Copenhagen September 1st and 2nd 2017

Today, preventive conservation has become a leading theme in all fields of cultural property. Useful scientific and technical knowledge continues to grow but is often incorporated in current practice slowly, incorrectly, or not at all. Despite the best intentions, professionals and institutions dealing with the preservation of cultural property may apply unrealistic standards, guidelines or lists of best practices, with no clear sense of priority, or of realistic expected benefits. With limited resources, decision makers are usually confronted with difficult choices in planning conservation strategies.

Since 2005, leading professionals in the field such as Dr. Waller, have worked on developing and disseminating a risk management approach for cultural heritage. This risk management approach, which informs and guides decision makers in many other fields, offers a sound methodology to incorporate the most recent knowledge into current practice. It allows an integrated view of all expected damages and loss to cultural property, and of their mitigation, thus providing a useful tool for the design of more efficient conservation strategies. Preservation requirements and priorities will no longer be seen as overhead costs but as sound, strategic investments. Participants learn to determine their preventive conservation priorities and how best to invest their limited funds.

Planned to work conveniently into schedules for attending the 18th Triennial ICOM-CC meeting in Copenhagen, this workshop will be held Friday September 1 and Saturday September 2nd at the National Museum of Denmark Conservation Department<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__cp.mcafee.com_d_5fHCN8i4wUSyMqem3hO-2DNssqejtPqtXLzHCzB5NYSDuXUWVEVh7c6QXIIcLFLKc6QXI9CzBNNcQsTdyfKKZivH4-5FxiI0kwH2D00jq2Ias01dEfTp88CzB-5FHYUOeouooWZOWqrz78T7c8TKZR4klHFGThvVkffGhBrwqrudELCXYyMeujsKYeKrKr9PCJhbcryuxXLMF-5FbhHlRqIEjVv3audNf9dD4VPmbIy0Ga-5F3ErdlKD85hmCD-5FgKC7r10KC7k-2D9ClLEaSH2DNcXelo5QMXo85QMWfQDmePBm0GQws761In42blzyW15dksa0aSS70jsr2twOe641oMR4Ui2EK184cKCgAcaxOMUf0F5060iWjsr2gp5iptU61A-2DHbE30OEb1wE6JaDh0snEcxdIi4hgJ0MqenGxw2xw3xMj2UW04BTz7Cg7CO60mos5rzDx1GxOa073DP8S3a38IcwaSd3wK0VAy4Smg60wr6wio0lY5x9cdslQ9FyYibnD6U4XlffbDBO5mUm-2Dwa4RtxNrj-5FXQ6PoVNVxUSqmMojJkYYKuqnjh013sfd41sQg0gSum0cQg37HjZkxYjh0685MHa7Cy0iGT6DQd41sKq81JKDJGCy0oCSwm0cQg1kayg8d40mzmvSCq80LYpjQzVEw4GNmd46Mgd40cSsGMQYQg3rtfrld45njh07v1noBjqar1IRKLaMBOfK73&d=DwIFAg&c=cjytLXgP8ixuoHflwc-poQ&r=LpYc_Z_iN1KRw0hheb3x6-8MJUMu482qfHowpGYJqwc&m=-ga2C9oz8sv2cTtFZfinYzyoQSf6D_H16jOdNDODvhk&s=jGd65hMibXxyx_kdDJqlDjgViWuHlva6lIr5Ta9jbww&e= >, Copenhagen.
Objective
The objective of this methodical, but not highly technical, workshop is to familiarize participants with the approach to assessing and managing risks to collections based on the award winning Cultural Property Risk Analysis Model (CPRAM).
Participants will learn to:

  *   identify all the risks to which collections are exposed, which agents of change are responsible and how risk event frequencies range from continual to rare;
  *   assess the relative importance of risks;
  *   identify means of controlling risks using different methods applied at different levels; and
  *   develop risk mitigation strategies and evaluate their costs, risks and benefits in order to choose the most valuable option in a given context.
Course methodology

The workshop is a highly interactive training session. It includes both theory and tightly integrated practical components in which the participants play an important part. Information is gained through lectures, demonstrations, brainstorming in small groups, assembling of ideas, presentation and discussion. The teaching approach fosters team-building and mutual understanding.

Participants are provided with various learning tools including the workshop manual which contains the complete workshop content, exercises, references, and a glossary of terms.

Workshop content

Part One - Assessing Risks to Collections
1)    Identify all risks to collections and the agents of deterioration
2)    Identify the types of risk according to their frequency and severity
3)    Recognise the parameters for estimating risks: fraction susceptible, loss in value, extent, probability
4)    Calculate magnitudes of risk

Part Two - Managing Risks to Collections
5)    Identify methods of controlling risks
6)    Identify levels for applying the methods of controlling risks
7)    Develop mitigation strategies
8)    Evaluate the relative costs, risks and benefits of mitigation strategies

Venue
The workshop, as well as the practical session will take place at the National Museum of Denmark Conservation Department<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__cp.mcafee.com_d_2DRPoQcygwrhod7b1EVvoKed79KVJeZTNRPhOyU-2DrjLtYtsQsEzC3qtSm6nQTT63qtS4PhOUUCqerCN7TnuFfRyvMFm0aglxjw09J1m5e00CQ7XIA4jhO-5FR-2Dsp7cfcctuVtddNzArzC4rTuWyaaRQRrELYG7DR8OJMddCzASy-2DrLOb0VVdOXMWVKVIDeqR4INK9W7K-5F2DYJ6JnlGOxfBYcFUT4YASsjDdoKO82EHYexIRmWswl5qqvZ2WotI42WotjUCpm-2DwHqIav4PIVlwnj3Jwwnj3E-5FitoXelo2Hi1Mso6Nsg8JmebE4kRhME0Hros1dNI9S38Uog5z3kjx8ayU4wgOWp2gMG7b3wY2Ak0o1bFdNI91Al9BTwo6jWIKwc3awI62wqQGt41NuwO4SN8h52Q31EVuG60a60e71cbzE0inucup0ur8o1pxMlKeu46G78E0sevczocEcyMO0HoQe2U3Ci8jpp0o21Iq19w1nMm4AMRNngCCbN8JusrwjJkYYKun8lrxrW0EjlS75Jf-5FLgrdzD7C7zpFr1xeRjPOVVFtd404dMYQg5Ph013pVo0Ph0cuJfRi7Nd40own2IEuq81aHsqvgQg5OVEw6SWuSGq81yrq1o0Ph05gG90wQg1qdp-5FqpEw2-5FNBfifCy0iH5oQgr10Qg0PpOH3jPh0dJQZJkQgltd40tY5tyldEFI6ZBFz&d=DwIFAg&c=cjytLXgP8ixuoHflwc-poQ&r=LpYc_Z_iN1KRw0hheb3x6-8MJUMu482qfHowpGYJqwc&m=-ga2C9oz8sv2cTtFZfinYzyoQSf6D_H16jOdNDODvhk&s=O9nXIbiqjZ7vHz05hRx0RQs0FRks5VJcCcBnjoaD-Po&e= >, I.C.
