Digital Curation Gap
Dramatic progress of research and development on digital curation and professional practices of archivists, librarians, and museum curators in the past decade.
There are now many viable applications, models, strategies, and standards for long-term care of digital objects.
However, many institutions are either not aware of the options or do not currently have the ability to evaluate and implement them.

Need for Lifelong Education Never before has there been such a need for
continuing education for library, archiving, and IT staff.
An amazing array of materials to monitor, read, and absorb.
“Best practice” or even “good practice” is a moving target.
The web has not made this easier. Nice also to have face-to-face educational
opportunities to make sense of it all and learn with people from similar backgrounds.
Need for practitioner-researcher networks.12/10/2012

Challenges in Building Vocational Education Programs - Audience
Who is the audience? What does the audience already know? What credentials do they already have? How heterogeneous is the audience? What sub-groups are there in the
audience? What roles are individuals in and what are
their responsibilities and foci? What technology and technology skills do
individuals/organizations have?12/10/2012

More Challenges
How will this all be packaged? How will it be delivered? What will it cost? What will people/institutions pay? How long will it take? Should there be a formal
credentialing program with exams and continuing education credits for re-certification?
