The Digital Preservation Coalition is delighted to welcome Amy Currie to its staff, in the role of Training Officer.
Amy will manage training and skills services for members, covering the work of Sharon McMeekin – the DPC’s Head of Workforce Development - as she delivers the Novice to Ninja project with colleagues from The UK National Archives.
“Amy will help us continue to provide opportunities for our members to acquire, develop and retain competent and responsive workforces that are ready to address the challenges of digital preservation,” explains Sharon. “We’re very pleased to have her on board!”
Amy brings with her considerable experience in the field of digital preservation, and training, having recently co-convened the ‘Description, Cataloguing and Navigation’ course for postgraduate Information Management & Preservation students at the University of Glasgow where she recently submitted her PhD.
Amy will be based in the DPC office in Glasgow.
