London | Understanding building conservation
Improve your decision making when working on and managing traditional buildings
In accordance with the ICOMOS (International Council On Monuments and Sites) Training and Education Guideline and the latest British Standard on conservation of historic buildings (BS 7913: 2013) the course will introduce the philosophy behind conservation before going into detail regarding the technical analysis of buildings, ensembles and sites, diagnosing issues, identifying the best building conservation solutions, working with the various stakeholders, and ultimately providing advice regarding best practice.
At the end of the 2 days, you will be confident in your ability to apply practical skills towards building conservation, will feel much better informed in this field of practice, and will receive a certificate of attainment from the CIOB if you pass the end of course test. Moreover, those who pass the course will be eligible for further recognition under the new CIOB Building Conservation Certification Scheme. a short video on the course and certification can be found here.
The course is open to anyone who works with traditional buildings. The course is also an integral part of the CIOB Conservation Certification scheme which requires all those applying for Certification to successfully complete this course unless they have an approved qualification in the subject. The course however is stand alone and those participating need not be CIOB members or have an interest in the CIOB Conservation Certification scheme. It is an ideal grounding to all those new to conservation and seeking to improve results for clients on conservation projects.
