About Dublin Core Academy

The mission of the Dublin Core Academy is to provide practical and cutting-edge education on metadata strategy and implementation. We aim to empower professionals and community leaders to harness the full potential of metadata in the digital age.

Mission

Dublin Core Academy is designed to reach information professionals at a range of knowledge and experience levels, including aspiring pre-professionals seeking to specialize in metadata, and experienced practitioners in need of skill set updates.

Community Focus

We also aim to reach leaders of community archiving projects looking to create metadata about their own cultural heritage objects and educators of metadata in academic and professional settings.

Course Delivery

Dublin Core Academy courses are delivered through a 2-hour live online session that focuses on a specific skill or tool related to metadata management and creation. Instructors give background and context, as well as providing students with hands-on exercises designed to build experience with a skill or tool.

Support

Students will have access to an online forum to ask questions after the live class session.

Leadership

The Dublin Core Academy is led by a team of experienced professionals dedicated to advancing metadata strategy and implementation.
