Online Museum Classes
Description:: Discover why museums use those little bitsy numbers on artifacts. Master the ABCs of museum record keeping in the Basics of Museum Registration. Participants learn about registration, accession, common numbering systems and how to craft a mission statement for their museum. Finally, the course reviews the importance of having - and using - a registration manual and what it should contain. Each participant will write a mission statement, as well as collection and acquisition policies for a "new" museum. The curriculum also requires written commentary on museum missions, an accessioning exercise and drafting a sample registration manual.
Course Outline: Basics of Museum Registration runs for four weeks. To reserve a spot in the course, please pay at http://www.collectioncare.org/tas/tas.html If you have trouble please contact Helen Alten at helen@collectioncare.org
Student Comments for MS103: The Basics of Museum Registration " I liked the exercise where we chose the different items we would have in the museum. That one was hard because I didn't always know how to justify something I wanted or didn't want … I was even asking my family at the dinner table and we were all talking about what we would keep and what we wouldn't! I would definitely take another class." This course was a great quick course … I will look forward to taking more in the future … The instructor was very helpful and available. "The class was set up so that someone with very little time could learn a lot in a short period. It provided information that was useful in the actual context of work." "I have enjoyed many of the classes offered through NSCC and really learn a lot. … The class was taught extremely well and provided grateful information. Peggy was an inspiring person with so much to learn from!
