Education & Training Offerings for Archives, Museums and Libraries in Nova Scotia

Education and training opportunities are a necessity for pre- and post-appointment and volunteer staff alike in Archives, Museums and Libraries.  In Nova Scotia these opportunities are available, in all three fields, in a wide variety of traditional and non-traditional learning environments.  Information about what is being taught where, and by whom, is not always easily communicated among our disciplines.  As we move toward more collaborative relationships we are likely to see an increase in the need for these learning opportunities across the disciplines.

This session will provide an overview of the spectrum of educational and training opportunities currently being offered in Nova Scotia.  Educators, trainers and lecturers from various universities, community colleges, professional associations and online offerings will present in this “rapid fire” session giving conference attendees a venue for exploration of the scope and relevance of these offerings to their own institutional or career future.
