About SW Museum Skills Training

Our sessions are designed to help your museum and its workforce respond to today and to plan for the future. Our training sessions take place either online or in-person.

Our sessions are for staff and volunteers in museums within Arts Council England’s Accreditation scheme in the South West of England area and non-Accredited sites from contributing Local Authority areas. This includes freelancers directly working with museums and students on paid or voluntary placements with museums in this region.

If we are unsure about your eligibility, we may contact you before confirming your booking.

Information on previous sessions delivered as part of the Museum Skills programme are available on request.

Please read our Training Accessibility Statement for information on how we can meet your needs before, during, and after training.
