MAP provides a set of standards based on:

• current museum practices
• the National Standards for Australian Museums and Galleries
• three priorities – museum management, collections and community involvement.

If your museum is managed by volunteers or has up to one full-time worker, it would need to meet the requirements listed in our new MAP Workbook to gain accreditation. From 2008 the MAP Workbook has been based on the National Standards for Australian Museums and Galleries. It sets out the benchmarks considered most important and achievable for small museums in Victoria.

To gain accreditation, larger museums need to meet the MAP standards. The MAP Kit outlines these.
