Robbin,
Are there actual museums that do this (see below)? It's my experience that
budgets are so tight that most museums have a hard time coming up with
funding for their own professionals to attend conferences in the name of
continuing education.

Right on, I say - volunteer, volunteer, and volunteer. The wheat separates
from the chaff. If you are good, a museum will not want to loose you, and
if they can't retain you - they will write great letters of recommendation.
