Discovery Museum

The Discovery Museum will develop and implement a new professional development program that provides ongoing learning opportunities for all staff and empowers them to achieve their professional goals. Project activities include developing and implementing three types of staff training including providing basic skills and knowledge training to help staff perform their roles; mission-focused training to help staff understand and see their role as it relates to the museum’s mission, values, and strategic direction; and developing individual professional development plans for all museums staff. The project will generate a sustainable approach to professional development that will ensure staff have the skills, knowledge, and support to achieve their individual learning and professional goals while strengthening the museum’s workplace culture by fully integrating learning and collaboration opportunities into the work experience.
