Good morning:


A reminder that the NDSA Standards and Practices quarterly meeting for the fall is TODAY (Monday, October 17). We will hear from Amy Currie and Sharon McMeekin from the Digital Preservation Coalition. They will be speaking with us about the new DPC Competency Audit Toolkit (CAT). This session builds on discussions from our last S&P meeting, where we looked at digital preservation staffing and skills. Sharon and Amy will showcase a new framework and toolkit for assessing skills that are soon to be launched to the wider community. More below:

 

Developed as a companion resource to the DPC Competency Framework, the DPC Competency Audit Toolkit (CAT) provides users with practical, structured processes for assessing the skill levels of those undertaking digital preservation work at their organization, to assess current skills relating to the competency areas and skill elements presented in the Competency Framework.

 

As always, running meeting notes for the NDSA Standards & Practices Interest Group, and Zoom meeting link, can be found here:
