Workshops

NEMA's spring/summer workshop series is a popular source of professional development, providing you with in-depth learning opportunities that enhance your skill set and museum career.

To make them more affordable than ever, NEMA has created a special volume discount for members only. Sign up for at least three workshops and you'll receive a 20% discount off the member rate (excludes the already reduced YEP PAG Workshop series). And NEMA institutional members who send at least five employees or trustees to workshops also receive a 20% discount (excludes the already reduced YEP PAG Workshop series).

To take advantage of the discount, first browse the workshop listings below. Then click HERE if you're an individual registering just yourself or HERE if you're an institutional member registering multiple people. Most workshops are followed by an informal networking event, open to all museum friends in the area (regardless if you attend the workshop). So plan to stick around and mingle with your colleagues after a great day of learning.
