Program Reach

“I have always had a massive feeling of imposter syndrome towards archaeology and CRM. I went into the program very nervous that I didn't deserve/belong to be there. I no longer feel this way. I feel so much more confident in my abilities and knowledge.”

“I feel that for the first time in my life, I have a clear view of what I want my future to look like. I can confidently answer the question “where do you see yourself in five years” to anyone who asks. In fact, I can respond with a two, five, and ten year plan. I have a new found sense of identity, one that I hope to continue to develop and be proud of for years to come.”

“This was an impressively thorough CRM preparation program.”

“I just want to reiterate that I am happy to see a CRM-focused field school being conducted in the southeast that is geared towards preparing students for their likely career. All too often, CRM firms are hiring folks with little to no practical skills and experience, forcing them to train on the go. I'm impressed with the goals and execution of the field school and hope that it continues to grow in the coming years. SEARCH would love to continue to support future iterations of the field school.”

“I am quite impressed with the diversity of the CRM archeology training your students receive, and I am equally impressed with how they are instilled with a teamwork attitude and work ethic.”
