Description

Through an iterative and collaborative approach, project staff and paid community advisory group members will design and test the new system, which will position the museum to better understand and respond to visitors' needs. Staff will receive training on techniques for community outreach-based evaluation methods, such as survey development, observations, and interviews, and will attend conferences to further their professional development and share results of the project. As a result, the bakken museum will be better situated to serve its constituents and staff will be empowered to assess program improvements, communicate successes and challenges, and foster ongoing engagement.
