Unit Commentary

This unit is for archaeologists who are responsible for the development of policy or guidance in any occupational context within the profession including collections. In order to develop policies or guidance, it is necessary first to establish the requirements and expectations of interested parties within archaeology and in the wider community. Constraints and opportunities for the development of policies or guidance should be assessed and draft proposals prepared for consultation. Final proposals can then be recommended with appropriate justifications.
