DPOE Curriculum
The DPOE Baseline Digital Preservation Curriculum consists of 6 easily understandable topics.
- Identify . . . the types of digital content you have.
- Select . . . what portion of your digital content will be preserved.
- Store . . . your selected content for the long term.
- Protect . . . your content from everyday threats and emergency contingencies.
- Manage . . . and implement requirements for long term management.
- Provide . . . access to digital content over time.
The DPOE curriculum is informed by a national digital preservation training needs assessment survey, a review of existing digital preservation curricula, and DPOE’s core training principles. See the DPOE Background page for more information.
After participating in a DPOE Train-the-Trainer workshop, DPOE Trainers receive a package of ready made presentations, trainer notes, a list of resources for each topic, and a comprehensive guide for how to deliver a training event. Together these materials support delivery of the DPOE Baseline Digital Preservation Curriculum.
