NEW IN 2005 Certificate Program Introduced Campbell Center participants now have the option of registering for a Collections Preventive Care Certificate Program. Participants receive a Certificate upon successful completion of a program related to the preservation and care of objects of material culture. The program of study consists of six courses in a combination of core and elective courses. Three different certificates will be awarded depending on the participant's career level and their training needs. For more details about the curriculum and costs visit the Campbell Center web site, Certificate Program page. This Certificate Program development is supported with a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities.
