The George Washington University’s Distance Education Graduate Certificate Program in Museum Collections Management and Care will complete an UPDATE and REVISION this fall. New topics added to the program include digitization, sustainability, and collections care in archives.
The graduate certificate consists of 4 classes in legal and ethical issues, collections management, and preventive conservation. The certificate is earned completely online and there is never a time that you are required to login for a class so you work when it suits you!
The classes are taught by faculty with extensive experience at the Smithsonian Institution, the National Park Service, and the U.S. Department of State. There are also guest lectures from leaders in the field on topics such as fire protection and integrated pest management.
We are accepting applications for the incoming fall class until August 1, 2015. Admission is on a rolling basis.
