CECA is setting up  “Special Interest Groups”.
The purpose of this initiative is multiple:

• Encourage joint reflection among our members throughout the year and not only at the annual conference
• Increase the interactivity of our annual meetings by including discussion groups based on the group’s work and exchanges during the year
• Possibly allow members who could not attend the annual conferences to participate remotely in a focus group on a topic of interest to them.
• Identify specific skills around certain topics in order to enrich our training offer during regional workshops

The Special Interest Groups in operation are:

• Professional development of museum educators – Coordinator : Wencke Maderbacher (wencke.maderbacher[at]yahoo.de).

If you are interested in participating in the discussions around one of the themes, please contact the coordinator of that theme. It will integrate you in a first online working group.
Opportunities for exchange with the rest of the CECA members will then be offered according to technical arrangements and a timetable specific to each group, but allowing participation in the work of several groups if so desired.
