AAM accreditation comes with significant benefits, including national credibility, enhanced relationships with peers and supporters, and institutional sustainability. But what does the process of obtaining these benefits entail, and how do you know if your museum is ready to take it on? For the answer to those questions, the best place to go is straight to the source: our dedicated body of volunteer peer reviewers. Throughout the year, these knowledgeable, generous museum experts take time out of their schedules to visit with institutions seeking accreditation and write detailed reports about the health of their operations. To help us demystify the accreditation process, and identify the issues and misconceptions that come up, we asked a few of these peer reviewers to answer some questions about their experiences.
