| Content | <h1>About</h1>
The <strong>Inclusive Museum Traineeship Programme</strong> is part of a Heritage Lottery-funded initiative to tackle lack of engagement with the museums and heritage sector from people from BME backgrounds. Part of the programme will provide the opportunity for four non-graduates from BME backgrounds to attain an SVQ level 3 in Museums and Galleries Practice, alongside workplace learning. During a 12-month placement in a host museum, either Glasgow Museums or the National Trust for Scotland, Trainees will be supported by a learning bursary and receive mentor support from the lead organisation, <strong><a href="http://www.nextstepinitiative.org.uk" target="_blank">Next Step Initiative</a></strong>, whose overall aim is to increase employment and participation from BME groups in the sector. On completion of the programme the trainees will have the combination of a vocational qualification and the confidence of work-readiness.
