Date: Thursday 21st October 2021

For museums to be able to take full advantage of everything digital can offer, they must first understand how and where digital sits within their organisation.

The Digital Culture Compass is a powerful tool which can help a museum to evaluate how digital relates to their organisation. However the toolkit can be daunting to use, particularly for smaller museums.

In this three part online course you’ll will be guided through using parts of the Digital Culture Compass, to complete an assessment of some of your museum’s digital activities. After you’ll have the confidence, tools and resources needed to complete the full toolkit within your own organisation.

With a small group of up to 16 delegates from eight museums there will be plenty of time for discussions and active learning. There will be some short self-led workshop exercises in between the sessions.

Thursday 21 October, 10am-12noon
Thursday 4 November, 10am-12noon
