A few places remain available on the Foundation Course for start this September and anyone interested should contact me direct\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>IHBC Director Se\u00e1n O\u2019Reilly said: \u2018IHBC\u2019s course assessment programme offers \u2018Full recognition\u2019 to courses that map to our membership accreditation standards. It means that an person who has successfully completed the course needs only 2 years of professional experience to apply for full accredited membership.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Full recognition can serve as an important \u2018fast-tracking\u2019 for those applying for full membership, but it also ensures that the courses effectively balance the IHBC\u2019s conservation priorities: the international standard in conservation represented by the ICOMOS guidelines on conservation training, and the World Bank model for environment project management. Of course applicants also must satisfy our membership requirements before Full Member status is offered.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>\u2018We also pride ourselves in responding to the diverse pressures and opportunities for a new generation of conservation professionals. The Building Crafts College Foundation Course is especially interesting, as it is open to non-graduates as well as graduates. To ensure it\u2019s compatibility with our specific needs, it only operates under the terms of \u2018full recognition\u2019 where attached an appropriate graduate or equivalent qualification, such as a suitable vocational qualification.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>For more information on the BBC\u2019s foundation course contact Graham Lee at <a href=\"mailto:graham.lee@thebcc.ac.uk\" target=\"_blank\">graham.lee@thebcc.ac.uk<\/a>, or phone 01672 515714\/020 8522 1705.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Full details of course available at<\/span>: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thebcc.ac.uk\" target=\"_blank\">www.thebcc.ac.uk<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">For IHBC recognised course information and background details see<\/span>: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ihbc.org.uk\/join\/ed_train\/recognised_courses\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\">LINK<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>IHBC has announced its formal recognition, for IHBC membership applications, of conservation course progammes offered under Kingston University London: the linked BA and MSc postgraduate course and, for graduates, the Foundation Degree Course at the Building Crafts College (BCC), Stratford. &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/?p=4600\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4600","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-sector-newsblog"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4600","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=4600"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4600\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4601,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4600\/revisions\/4601"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=4600"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=4600"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=4600"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
