Your student should get in touch with Dianna Thompson, Head Professional
Development and Standards, for advice on training opportunities across Canada.
She can provide you with a booklet called "Museum Studies Programs in
Canada" that describes the wide range of academic and professional
development programs offered by universities, colleges and professional
associations across the country.

We have a number of agencies involved in the articulation of training
standards, policies and strategies. The Canadian Museums Human Resource
Planning Committee is playing a leadership role in identifying the human
resource development needs of museums and linking these to competency
standards and training strategies. As well, the Cultural Human Resources
Council takes a broader approach to research and support for training across
the cultural sector. Since Dianna is actively involved in both, she is an
excellent contact for your student.

Best wishes,
