1What it is
A self-paced online pathway in long-term preservation of digital content, combining video, text, short quizzes and tool demonstrations. It opens with a beginners' pathway, followed by standalone courses on providing access to preserved content, email preservation, building a digital asset register, and advocacy within the organisation. It is training, not a professional credential, and its page mentions no certificate on completion.
2Who it suits
Librarians and archivists who have become responsible for digital files without prior training, and university libraries preserving theses and research data.
3What it requires
None for the beginners' pathway; some later courses assume basic knowledge of digital preservation. The coalition may give priority access to its members and to UK archives for some courses.
4How it is earned
Self-registration on the coalition's learning portal, then study at the learner's own pace.
When a centre or body posts a course that prepares for it, we send you one email about it.
