Workshops

Explore topics in-depth, at an advanced or elementary level, in workshops given by experienced professionals.

On April 9, 2008 (the day before the conference program begins) full- and half-day workshops were given by leaders in the museum computing field. Topics were both theoretical and practical, offering a focused way to build your skills. Whether just beginning, or are well advanced in the use of the Web, there was a workshop to further all levels of professional development.

Workshop presenters were professionals with broad experience and valuable insights to share.
