London Branch will host another free event to help practitioners applying for conservation accreditation by the IHBC on Wednesday 13 September, from 6.00 – 8.00 pm in London: early booking is essential.
IHBC London Branch Chair Sheila Stones said: ‘We are very pleased to announce that the forthcoming Membership Training Session on 12 July sold out in just 48 hours. The aim was to assist people in upgrading their membership from either Affiliate/ Associate to Full membership.
‘Due to the unprecedented demand for this event we will be holding an additional Training Event on Wednesday 13 September, from 6.00 – 8.00 pm at Lichfield’s offices, 14 Regent’s Wharf, All Saints Street, London N1 9RL. (10 mins walk from Kings Cross station).’
There will be a presentation from Kate Kendall, IHBC Education, Training & Standards Liaison Officer and IHBC Director Sean O’Reilly followed by small group discussions on the areas of competence.
Kate Kendall said: ‘These events are a great way for prospective applicants to find out how to understand their skills, knowledge and experience in the context of IHBC membership criteria and accreditation. And all this is free too, offered to anyone interested in IHBC membership as part of the IHBC’s charitable support for the care of the built and historic environment.’
Sean O’Reilly said: ‘Working alongside IHBC staff, membership assessors and recently accredited conservation professionals, delegates can see what the assessment process entails and requires, as well as work through how any individual skills can map to the IHBC’s standards and their national and international contexts.’
