We closed off the survey portion of our project two Fridays ago and are pleased to report significant responses from both Employers/Internship providers and Students/New Archivists. Much of what we are looking at are the expectations in internship work and the level at which students participate in professional organizations in order to see what factors affect a successful outcome in professional development for the student, the employer/internship provider and the profession as a whole.
Over the next couple weeks, we will post some of the data and preliminary results from the surveys. Beginning with the expectations on Student/Emerging Archivist student work (paid positions), internships, and volunteer work and how they relate professional development, specifically involvement in professional organizations.
Cheers,
Max and Pete
