This course will increase your understanding of museums and museum operations by examining their historical development, governance models, and core managerial concepts. It will also introduce you to aspects of daily operations and how they are impacted by such concepts as ethics, public trust, and standards as detailed within the MAS guidebook Standards for Saskatchewan Museums.
This course is being offered as a pilot project with the Department of History at the University of Regina to provide students with the opportunity to obtain training in the field of museum studies as part of their early career education. Individuals from the Saskatchewan museum community who are interested in Museums 101 as part of our Certificate program are encouraged to enroll, as this session will provide participants with a unique experience of sharing viewpoints and knowledge from a diverse group of members of the provincial heritage community.
