FED - The Federation of Yorkshire and Humberside Museums and Art Galleries

Training: Regional Museum's Programmes

The Fed runs the Museum Essentials Training Programme, designed to offer sector specific training to its
Institutional and Personal members.  The courses on offer have been tailored to your needs, based upon
requirement and demand.  The programme is sponsored by Renaissance Yorkshire.

We are also partners in delivering the Rapid Response Network Training Programme (RRN) which is supported
by a £50,000 grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund awarded to the Yorkshire Medium Museum Services network
[YoMMS].  This programme will assist museums in coping with emergencies and disasters such as those faced
in the floods of 2007.  The Fed administers the programme.

Yorkshire Renaissance are supporting during 2009-10, a second phase of Disability Awareness Workshops
intended to improve the sector's awareness of issues facing people with disabilities.  The programme is
administered by the Fed.  The booking form is available here.

The MLA are also running a series of events in the region through their Strategic Commissioning Programme
 which provide cross sectoral CPD opportunities.

You can find all training courses on our interactive calendar.  Click here to visit the calendar or the individual
