Continuing Professional Education Course Catalog
The Society of American Archivists has developed a wide array of professional continuing education programs available for co-sponsorship by repositories and other institutions. The major benefits of co-sponsorship? Bringing a high-quality SAA workshop to your location, plus savings on time and resources!
All SAA programs follow the Guidelines for Archival Continuing Education (the ACE Guidelines), which were developed by the Committee on Education, vetted through broad discussion with the SAA membership, and adopted by the SAA Council in 2006. The Guidelines are intended to encourage creation of opportunities for lifelong learning within the archives community.
The ACE Guidelines document identifies eight “standard areas of archival knowledge,” which serve as the basis for organizing SAA’s course offerings. If your institution is interested in co-sponsoring an SAA workshop, just click on a topic area below for a complete list of offerings in that area.
For more information about education policies and the co-sponsorship process, contact us at education[at]archivists.org.
