I'm chiming in another vote for JHU! This is my second semester in the program and I have found the variety of courses and quality of professors outstanding. I was apprehensive of doing a MA program online but this program has proven to be challenging and progressive. I also work full time, as many in the program do.
The JHU program also requires a 2-week on-site seminar course offered in various locations during the summer and intercession breaks. I just recently completed mine in London (with Noel). Having the opportunity to be in class and meet other students in the program defintely makes the JHU program stand out.
If I were in your shoes I would lean more toward doing a full MA program rather than a certificate.
Good luck!
Dana

JHU Museum Studies Masters is amazing! It is incredibly rigorous but the amount and range of learning is unparalleled, in my opinion. It is a bit costly but infinitely worth it.
I was enrolled previously in an on-line masters at a university in the UK and withdrew after 6 weeks because there was no rigor whatsoever. It was less than US high school level.
So...go JHU!

Suggestions? Guidance?
I am currently enrolled in George Washington University's Distance Education Graduate Certificate in Museum Collections Management and Care. This has been a good experience for me, as it is a flexible program allowing me to still work full time. I have found it to be relatively affordable for graduate classes. For additional information on the program and specific classes offered check out this link:

Hope this helps!

Hey all,
I have a MA in Art History but haven't gotten an internship because I am in no financial situation where I can move somewhere for one, but may be able to do some online museum studies courses because I work a full-time job (insurance) and a part-time job once a week as well. I'm feeling detached from my goal of working in a museum and need to keep adding useful experience to my CV. My question is, what places offer GOOD online courses for museum studies that are affordable?? I want the freedom to be able to choose one, possible two classes at a time to keep myself growing toward my goal, but feel hesitant about applying to do another graduate degree when I already have a bagillion student loans weighing on me.
Much thanks.
