- Grant Description
- The National Historical Publications and Records Commission seeks proposals designed to improve the training and education of professionals in the archival and historical publishing communities. Projects in this category can be for curriculum development for professional education; for basic and advanced institutes; research seminars; and projects to survey and plan. We encourage projects that identify necessary skills sets, develop curriculum standards and course outlines, and create and operate educational programs. Surveys, focus groups, and other activities to understand these professions and their educational and training needs are also eligible.This is a new grant category but continues the NHPRC tradition of awarding grants for professional development purposes. They have included the Society of American Archivists National Forum on Archival Continuing Education; the annual Historical Editing Institute; an institute on electronic records for archives managers; Archival Research Fellowships Programs; and the Archives Leadership Institute, among others.The Commission expects to announce this opportunity twice this year, with the next round in the Spring 2008.
