About CMP Help Sheets
The CMP Help Sheets complement the History Trust’s Community Museums Program Handbook. They provide additional information and templates for museums seeking to fulfil the requirements for registration or accreditation in the History Trust’s Community Museum’s Program (CMP).
Each Help Sheet is titled as it appears in the Handbook and carries a reference to the national standard/s it is applicable to.
Help Sheets will be uploaded as they are developed and over time additional Help Sheets to those mentioned in the Handbook may also be added.
