Assessing Risk to Cultural Property 1 online course begins May 5
Assessing risks to cultural property, including but not limited to Museum, Library, and Archive collections, is becoming a fundamental ability for collection care professionals and administrators to make informed decisions about not only where the risks to collections are, but also where resources will have the greatest effect in addressing those risks. Join instructors Robert Waller and Moya Dumville for the first in a series of online courses on Risk to Cultural Property. This introductory course provides a firm foundation on which to build an understanding of risk-based approaches to cultural property protection.
Participants will develop a useful set of defined type 1 (rare and potentially catastrophic) specific risks relevant to their institution. The potential impact of those risks will be ranked according to estimates of likelihood and impact. This will provide focus in the development of emergency preparedness plans and resources.
