RIBA Advanced Conservation Course - Spring 2024

The RIBA Advanced Conservation Course is an important step in developing your specialism in conservation.
The RIBA Conservation Accreditation Scheme is based on progressing through three levels from Conservation Registrant, implying awareness of the subject, to the formal accreditation levels of Conservation Architect and finally Specialist Conservation Architect demonstrating expertise.

The purpose of this 4-module series is to support this progression by focusing on the conservation process and elements and materials not covered in the introductory 6 module Conservation Series. The modules are based once again on the internationally recognised ICOMOS Guidelines for Education and Training.

Attending the series will help you develop critical awareness and knowledge of architectural conservation procedures in order to apply theory in practice, as well as detailed analysis of structure, construction and services during the Technical Design stage

The course’s emphasis is conservation in practice, presenting fresh and diverse projects and case studies that showcase the work of small and emerging practices and larger well-established practices to demonstrate the full range of core skills needed by conservation architects including the growing importance of the conservation of C20th buildings.
