<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Calibri;
color:#0C2344">This program will provide the necessary skills and knowledge for careers as educators in informal settings such as museums, locally and globally, and to support
classroom-based teachers in expanding their use of the community as a learning site. The program model is one that recognizes the need for contextualizing museum education curriculum in both home country context (which has its own unique social and political
context) and in the Canadian cultural context of museum education, in which practices may be conceptualized in other beneficial ways to that of the studentıs own country of origin. The end result are graduating students that are then better able to influence
the systems in their own countries with strengthened capacities to introduce beneficial reforms around museum education.</span></p>
