Not sure if SEI is right for you? SEI is designed to serve a wide range of today’s information professionals: those new to the field of image/digital collection management, library school students, and more experienced staffers eager to  update job skills. Steven Kowalik, Art Librarian at Hunter College and recent SEI grad noted: “It was a very rewarding experience, even for a “seasoned” librarian like myself. SEI recharged my professional battery while providing me with a renewed sense of confidence in a work environment of ever-evolving challenges and responsibilities."
