Heritage Site Interpreter

Are your soldiers doing battle; your pioneer women turning cream to butter?

This course teaches site interpreters to know their subject, answer difficult questions and work with the site appropriately. It combines the theoretical foundations of the profession with practical skills in delivering quality interpretive programming to audiences.

Making your programs purposeful, enjoyable, relevant, organized, and thematic is the key to keeping your guests happy. Our training will show your staff how to link history together while keeping with your vision. Quality visitor experiences result from careful planning and developing the tools and materials needed by agencies and businesses to provide these experiences. Our training will give your interpreters the ability to impart knowledge with fun and effectiveness.

Heritage Site Interpreters don't just preserve the relics, stories, and memorabilia of the past. They animate it and interpret it, bringing history to life for people of all ages and stages

Don’t let history repeat itself; prepare your staff for the future.

We will help you:

• Use antique props appropriately
• Relate commentary to everyday life
• Create a presentation to fit the site
• Tailor your programs for diverse audiences and various learning styles
• Improve presentation and communication skills
