• Metadata
  Discover how to structure metadata so your material is accessible, discoverable, and valuable for future researchers. Learn practical ways to enhance the usefulness of your archival items.
   
• Digitisation
  Explore best practices for creating archive-quality digital copies, from calibrating scanning equipment to producing permanent, high-standard files.
   
• Publishing
  Advice on curating your items into Collections and Stories to develop rich, useful resources for others to discover.

Training is open to all projects, organisations and individuals, and every session is customised to meet your needs.
