Reviews:
"This is a must take course for those in Business Archives! It is wonderful to have the opportunity to meet archivists that are in the same specific specialization because we can all relate to the challenges we all face and see how we can start to solve some of the issues we have through learning from other colleagues and by taking small steps and applying the strategies from the instructors of the course. It really changed my focus from worrying so much about the archival aspects of my job and starting to focus more on promoting the archives and winning the hearts and minds of our stakeholders."
"Jamie & Jennifer are GREAT! It is obvious they both have in-depth knowledge of the subject matter and are passionate about the archives profession and developing not only their own teams, but those in the field at other organizations as well."
"I really enjoyed their knowledge and learned a lot. I never felt intimidated at all as I came into the meeting feeling like I may not be educated enough in this field. They were also very approachable and they made it easy to ask questions."
"I came to the conference pretty nervous and not knowing exactly what to expect as I am not a trained Archivist. After the second day I came away with a lot more confidence and passion on what I need to focus in building an archive for the company that I work for. "
