Creating Virtual Learning Opportunities in Museums online course begins July 4 on MuseumStudy.com
One thing being forced to shut down has taught us is that whatever new normal we find it will include virtual programs and learning. That is why
we have put together this course.
Creating Virtual Learning Opportunities in Museums will cover creating both synchronous and asynchronous programs, connecting with teachers, and some technical skills to ensure that you can support teachers and
students virtually as they learn from you and your museum. By the end of the course, participants will have built several different virtual education programs that will be ready to use.
With the guidance of Instructor Hillary Hanel Rose participants
will create at least 3 different virtual museum education programs and learn to use technology tools and build skills to help them develop additional virtual learning opportunities.

Integrated Pest Management: The Plan and Implementation online course begins July 4 on MuseumStudy.com
So you are familiar with Integrated Pest Management, but you never got around to writing a plan to carry it out. Here is the course for you!
A written plan formalizes the IPM strategy and keeps management abreast of your status. It organizes your ideas and lays the groundwork for the needs of the collection and the building(s). It provides the direction in which you want to take the program,
including grant funding and accreditation.
Join Carnegie Museum of Natural History Conservator Gretchen Anderson for this four week online course in which participants will learn how to apply IPM principles to their specific situation and institution.
A draft plan and specific implementation strategies will be developed and discussed. Even though our institutions have different challenges the exchange of ideas presents the opportunity for us to help each other brainstorm solutions that will work
for our situation.
