December Update - New Book



My newest book "The Interpretive Trainers Handbook" is in final production and should be out shortly. We are also working an a new exciting project for interpretive training - e-interp - a new web-based interpretive training course program in association with cpd4education - a UK based internet training provider. These courses will be offered and available world-wide. Our first two internet courses will be "An Introduction to Interpretive Communication" and "Planning Interpretive Panels". When these two courses are officially "activated" I will post a link to access them. They will be fee-based training and offer a certificate of completion. In all, about 10 new courses are planned between now and 2013. Two courses in the planning and development stages are "Planning Interpretive Exhibits" and "Developing Marketing Brochures for Heritage Sites and Attractions" that should be available early next year. So it looks like 2012 should be a busy year. More new projects on the horizon for 2012 as well. Cheers - jv
