Join us for one of our 3 online professional development courses in October.



Decolonizing Museums in Practice course begins Oct 3 on MuseumStudy.com Articles about decolonizing museums are everywhere these days, but what does this actually mean in practice for museum professionals?

Join Laura Phillips, Heather George, and Nathan Sentance for this 8 week online course where we will focus on looking critically at how museum professionals can activate decolonial ways of thinking in their own work environment, and in their day to day life.

We will investigate how the words of contemporary Indigenous scholars and curators can be put into practice to promote practices that de-centre the subtle (and not so subtle) colonial ways of thinking that surround us every day.

The text book can take a while to arrive so make sure to order it well in advance if you can not find it locally. This course fills early, registration is now open for the October/November course.

Storage Techniques online course begins Oct 3 on MuseumStudy.com Join Instructor Rebecca Newberry for the 4 week course Storage Techniques. Is your collection at risk due to poor storage methods? Good storage mounts are essential for preserving museum collections. Building on the related course, Materials for Exhibit, Moving, and Storage, in Storage Techniques, you will learn about the materials, tools, ideas, and techniques needed to create quality storage mounts. You will design and build a storage mount for an object of your choosing and plan a storage improvement project for a collection of objects using archival materials and techniques. This course is also useful if you are preparing a collections move.
