The Intermediate and Advanced Collection Management modules are scheduled in September and November 2009, respectively. A fee of P3,500 per person includes snacks, lunch, seminar kit and certificate. Early birds get a 10% discount, while participants who register for all three modules (Basic, Intermediate, and Advanced) get a 25% discount.

The seminar series will be complemented by readings and hands-on activities designed to make the concepts understandable and easy to apply, and interaction with practicing museum registrars and collection managers. Slots limited to only 25 participants.
