Training for community groups

WYAS have developed training opportunities and resources to help support groups and organisations. Topics covered so far have included applicable legislation, collections care, exhibiting collections, social media and oral history.

 

We aim to run two cycles of training a year to support community and voluntary groups who have or are creating archives in a physical or digital format.

 

Visit the West Yorkshire Archive Service Resource Hub to find out more

 

Here you will be able to findn any resources relating to the training programme developed for community archives including previous trainee handbooks, worksheets and hints and tips in the form of podcasts and much more.

 

For details of current courses visit the ‘what on’ page or www.nowthen.org
