Thinking about attending the Summer Educational Institute for Visual
Resources and Image Management (SEI) 2012 at the University of Michigan
in Ann Arbor?
SEI 2011 attendee Adrianna Stephenson found the institute so enriching
she is attending again in 2012:
“I cannot reiterate
how important the Summer Educational Institute (SEI) was to my career
during my first year as a visual resources curator. Transitioning from
a traditional art history background into the world of visual resources
was both demanding and challenging as I found myself required to build
an entirely new foundation of specialized knowledge and training. The
SEI coursework proved to be exactly what I needed: the perfect balance
of theoretical framework, practical application, and open communication
between like-minded individuals. A year later I realize that the
benefits of SEI are more than just building solid technical skills and
increasing professional development, it’s about forging relationships
with other professionals who are generous, thoughtful, and motivating.
I took so much away from my first SEI experience it’s no wonder that
I’m thrilled to be attending again this year.”
