MEPPI courses are designed to provide basic theoretical and practical training in the care of a broad range of photographic materials found in the collections of museums, libraries, archives and other repositories.
· An eight-day workshop in Amman that included lectures, demonstrations, hands-on projects, collection visits, and case studies.
· An appproximately eight-month distance-mentoring period of assigned work that participants carry out in their own institutions while remaining in contact with an instructor. These assignments allow participants to apply the concepts and information presented during the workshop to their own collections. Instructors mentor participants by providing advice, guidance and additional information to assist them in their work with their collections. Participants can expect to spend from five to ten hours each month on practical work and distance mentoring with an instructor.
· A follow-up meeting in Beirut which allows instructors and participants to review progress made since the workshop and consider the potential next steps in advancing the preservation of their collections.
