I approached the Professional Certificate in Art Collecting Shipping with a critical eye, given my background in art history and museum studies. I was pleased to find that the course provided a thorough and well-researched introduction to the field, with a focus on best practices and industry standards. The modules on art handling and storage were particularly strong, and I appreciated the attention to detail and emphasis on safety protocols. The course materials were comprehensive and well-organized, although I did notice some minor errors and inconsistencies. The instructors were knowledgeable and responsive, and the online platform was generally user-friendly. One area for improvement might be the inclusion of more diverse perspectives and case studies from non-Western art markets. Overall, however, I found the course to be a valuable resource and a worthwhile investment of my time and energy. I would recommend it to others looking for a rigorous and informative program in art collecting and shipping.
