Dear All
Information on a free training day from Renaissance South East below.
Free training day Engaging adult audiences
Renaissance South East
Date: Wednesday 1st December 2010
Time: 10.00 to 16.00
Venue: Pitt Rivers Museum, Oxford
Adult learning is a huge and often complicated field. This course will
explore how to engage adult audiences through programmes and events. From
working with Adult Education providers to informal learners, from accredited
courses to creating an adult learning offer, this course will give practical
and transferable ideas for ways to engage adults in your museum. ³How to²
sessions will provide participants with the principles upon which to build
good practice and draw on the expertise of presenters from a wide range of
museums in the South East who already successfully engage adult audiences. A
key note session from NIACE will provide an overview of the changing
landscape of adult learning and there will be opportunities for
participation and discussion throughout the day. Contributors to the course
include: NIACE, The Ashmolean Museum, Weald and Downland Museum, Jocelyn
Goddard (Heritage Consultant), The Oxford University Museums and Jane Austen
House.
The course is suitable for museums beginning to consider devising adult
learning programmes and events as well as those with experience. This day is
designed to be combined with a further Renaissance South East course:
³Engaging hard to reach adults² on 13 December in Brighton which explores
working with difficult to reach adults through project and outreach work.
Feedback from previous courses in this programme has been extremely
positive:
³I wanted to congratulate you on a first-class day at Surrey History
Centre. Every bit of it was excellent and of great value. I really hope I
can get on some more as it really did give me a (mental) lift.² Unsolicited
