2018 SEAPAVAA Training Needs Survey

Background

Training may be used to develop competency in specific professional and technical tasks, to provide knowledge, to assist in planning and to bring about organisational changes in attitudes. Internationally, specific training for audiovisual archives is difficult to locate and expensive.

SEAPAVAA has a long history of providing training to members SEAPAVAA and aims to provide training programmes that are accessible and tailored to suit the conditions of the region.

In 2013, SEAPAVAA conducted a Training Needs Survey amongst its members to help in planning for the association’s training workshops. As a result of this survey, the priorities for workshops in the next few years were determined. The highest priority identified in this survey was for training on disaster planning and recovery of audiovisual collections. In 2014, a workshop “Developing a Disaster and Recovery Plan for an Audiovisual Collection” was presented to participants from across the Southeast Asia-Pacific region. In 2015, two workshops on “Advocacy: The Why And How Of It” and “Succession Planning: A Step To A Sustainable Archive” were organised. In 2016, a workshop on “Caring For Collections” was held.

SEAPAVAA Training Needs Survey 2018

In 2018, SEAPAVAA is conducting an updated Training Needs Survey to build on the previous information as well as help the association to assess how the profession has grown over the past few years.

The updated survey adds topics that are of increasing relevance to members across the region, such as managing Indigenous Cultural Intellectual Property. The results of the updated survey will translate into prioritised training programmes for members in the coming years, to meet the most urgent audiovisual archiving training needs of the region.

Please complete all the questions even if these are not important to your organisation.

The information received from this survey will remain anonymous and no organisation will be able to be identified.
