Working with Collections

Collections work is vital, and our collections underpin all aspects of museums. In this course we will look at some of the ways in which we can use our collections to keep them relevant for the modern world and represent our audiences better.  

We hope by providing a mix of information, exercises, resources and signposting you will be able to develop your confidence and competence around your own collections practice. 

Working with Collections supports the Public engagement and benefit and Stewardship of collections competencies in the Associateship of the Museums Association (AMA). For more information about the AMA please click here.
