Training

Led by experts of international renown, KDCS training courses focus on the creation, delivery and preservation of digital resources from cultural and memory institutions. Our training courses are aimed at managers and other practitioners from the library, museum, heritage and cultural sectors looking to understand the strategic and management issues of developing digital resources from digitisation to delivery. KDCS keeps class sizes small in order to tailor sessions to delegates' specific needs and ensure one-on-one time with instructors.

What course attendees have said about our training:

  • "Excellent coverage of information with apt description and explanation."
  • "The balance between group discussion and presentation was particularly good."
  • "This is excellent – one of the best I've attended."
  • "It was very comprehensive – as I thought of questions, they were answered almost right away. I have a lot of new knowledge that I'll be able to apply."
  • "Provided just the information required – informative, comprehensive and thought provoking."

KDCS training sessions offer excellent opportunities for personalised advice and networking with other delegates from internationally-renowned organisations in the UK, Europe and USA. These include: The British Library, Heritage Lottery Fund, JISC, National Portrait Gallery, Tate Enterprises, Courtauld Institute of Arts, Museum of Fine Arts Houston, University Library Ghent, Amnesty International, Institution of Electrical Engineers, Edinburgh City Library, Birmingham Central Library, Dundee City Council, among many others.
