Future Curator Training Course
The Future Curator Training Course is designed for secondary students who have interest in history studies and museum. The aim of the training is to enhance students' knowledge of the functions, roles and management of a museum and to give them a greater insight into the job of the museum curator through a series of thematic talks and visits and a final project.
This short summer course is co-organized with the Hong Kong Academy of Gifted Education. The application is organized for the student members of the Academy. Interested students may check with the website of the Academy for details of the course and its application.
