June 14, 2019 9:00AM

On March 21 and 22, 2019, AAM brought together thirteen experts on museum education for a professionally facilitated exploration of trends, needs, and opportunities in the museum education field. The insights from this convening are informing the design of a new Education & Interpretation Assessment for the Museum Assessment Program (MAP), and helping to ensure the assessment will have maximum positive impact for the participating museums and peer reviewers alike. We asked Robert Forloney, a consultant for cultural institutions and an AAM peer reviewer, to share a bit about his convening experience and his thoughts about this new MAP assessment initiative.
