The Novice to Know-How learning pathway is an online, self-directed training course offered by the Digital Preservation Coalition. It aims to provide beginners with the skills required to develop and implement simple digital preservation workflows within their organisation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It starts with a broad introduction to digital preservation issues and describes the steps that can be taken to address these. It then delves into potential workflows in more detail, examining the issues to consider, steps to take, and technological solutions that can deployed. An emphasis is placed on free, easy-to-use solutions, and includes a number of tool demos. Course content is provided as mix of video, text, and quizzes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Learning Objectives===&lt;br /&gt;
Learners will be able to:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;ul&amp;gt;&amp;lt;li&amp;gt;Explain what digital preservation is&amp;lt;/li&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;li&amp;gt;Prioritise digital preservation actions at their organization&amp;lt;/li&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;li&amp;gt;Develop and implement simple digital preservation workflows&amp;lt;/li&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/ul&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The learning pathway was developed by the Digital Preservation Coalition, funded by The National Archives (UK) as part of the &amp;quot;Plugged In, Powered Up&amp;quot; digital capacity building strategy.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

{{Infobox tool details}}&lt;br /&gt;
The Novice to Know-How learning pathway aims to provide beginners with the skills required to develop and implement simple digital preservation workflows within their organisation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It starts with a broad introduction to digital preservation issues and describes the steps that can be taken to address these. It then delves into potential workflows in more detail, examining the issues to consider, steps to take, and technological solutions that can deployed. An emphasis is placed on free, easy-to-use solutions, and includes a number of tool demos. Course content is provided as mix of video, text, and quizzes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;strong&amp;gt;Learning Objectives&amp;lt;/strong&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Learners will be able to:&lt;br /&gt;

The DPCMM &amp;quot;organizes the digital preservation requirements of the ISO Standards into fifteen components with metrics to assess maturity. The model is a tool for charting the evolution from disorganized and undisciplined management of electronic records, or the lack of a systematic digital continuity approach, into increasingly mature stages of digital preservation capability.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Based closely on the OAIS Reference Model, DPCMM is a useful tool for preservation planning and capability assessment for those looking for a holistic overview of their digital preservation activities. An assessment against the model can help with identifying gaps and priorities for development. It may also be used as a tool for those preparing for an ISO 16363 audit.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;!-- Describe the what the tool does, focusing on it's digital preservation value. Keep it factual. --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
A work in progress by the NDSA, it is intended to be a relatively easy-to-use set of guidelines useful not only for those just beginning to think about preserving their digital assets, but also for institutions planning the next steps in enhancing their existing digital preservation systems and workflows. It allows institutions to assess the level of preservation achieved for specific materials in their custody, or their entire preservation infrastructure. It is not designed to assess the robustness of digital preservation programs as a whole since it does not cover such things as policies, staffing, or organizational support. The guidelines are organized into five functional areas that are at the heart of digital preservation systems: storage and geographic location, file fixity and data integrity, information security, metadata, and file formats.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is expected that the Levels of Digital Preservation will be updated over time as additional feedback is received, experience is gained implementing its recommendations and as empirical research provides detailed information about data loss. For this reason, each iteration of the Levels will be versioned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
http://www.digitalpreservation.gov/ndsa/working_groups/documents/Levels_v1.pdf&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The overall structure of the chart is progressive -- the actions in the first level are either necessary prerequisites for those in the second to fourth levels or are themselves the most pressing activities to accomplish first. Broadly speaking, as one moves up each of the tiers from Level 1 to Level 4, one is moving from the basic need to ensure bit preservation towards broader requirements for keeping track of digital content and being able to ensure that it can be made available over longer periods of time. &lt;br /&gt;

The United States Geological Survey Fundamental Science Practices Advisory Committee Data Preservation Subcommittee has developed a set of preservation recommendations (pdf) based on the original NDSA levels guidelines. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
http://www.digitalpreservation.gov/ndsa/working_groups/documents/USGS_Guidelines_for_the_Preservation_of_Digital_Scientific_Data_Final.pdf&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
AVPreserve did a mapping exercise in 2014 to compare the NDSA Levels with ISO 16363.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
