Places still remaining on the Digital Preservation Training Programme,
29th-31st March 2010. It will take place at The School of Oriental and
African Studies (SOAS), London. See
http://www.dptp.org/2009/11/next-dptp-course2010/ for more information.
The Digital Preservation Training Programme (DPTP) is an intensive 3-day
course designed for all those working in institutional information
management who are grappling with fundamental issues of digital
preservation. It provides the skills and knowledge necessary for
institutions to combine organisational and technological perspectives and
devise an appropriate response to the challenges that digital preservation
needs present. DPTP is operated and organised by the University of London
Computer Centre with contributions from leading experts in the field.
Here is a sample of the feedback we've received on the DPTP over the last
few years:
"…the most beneficial and well presented, thought out course that I've ever
attended in 10 years as a professional"
"Thanks to you for your efforts to consolidate all digital preservation
related subjects in one course. I believe this has enabled the participants
to understand the wider picture of digital preservation in a national and
international context."
"Well done, excellent content and a very enjoyable course"
"The course was very good and value for money"
"…thanks to all of you for your work on the fantastic DPTP course. It was
without doubt the best training course I've ever been on, and I'm sure I'll
be referring to my folder for years to come. Somehow you even managed to
transform the OAIS model from something confusing and a bit scary, into
something understandable!"
