Over time such change has helped create and adapt the multi layered and diverse historic environment that we have inherited, and that we now conserve for future generations.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>\u2018The Annual School will explore how we can develop our understanding of how cultural change has influenced development in the past and the contribution that it makes to the significance of heritage assets. It will consider whether there is a requirement for us to preserve this cultural change within the built environment. Considering how this can be achieved whilst also allowing for continuous shaping of place. And to what extent can the conservation of heritage assets contribute towards creating sustainable and successful places in which to live.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Welcoming delegates to Norwich Prue Said, that the area \u2018provides the perfect venue to explore these questions further and to provide a base to discover Norfolk\u2019s own cultural connections with tours following the Medieval merchants, the Hanseatic League in Kings Lynn, the influence of the River Wensum as well as some of the county\u2019s most prestigious landmarks and historic sites. During the medieval period Norwich was England\u2019s second city and its mercantile wealth allowed it to become one of the great heritage cities of Europe. However its role as a social, economic and cultural engine at this time was far more dramatic and enshrined its cultural connections.\u00a0 We hope you will join us here.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>IHBC Education Secretary David McDonald said: \u2018Each year the IHBC\u2019s School provides our inter-disciplinary membership, and their colleagues and friends, with a unique opportunity to examine, explore and investigate current issues in conservation.\u00a0 At our School practitioners and advisers from all backgrounds can uncover current and future trends and priorities.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018With the School\u2019s learning opportunities mapped to our professional development models and membership criteria, delegates can be sure they will receive some of the best-targeted CPD around, and also get the best grounding available in their career progress or applications for IHBC accreditation.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>\u2018And do remember also that the Friday \u2018Day School\u2019 is a fully-fledged CPD opportunity in its own right, so anyone with any interest in the built environment or managing places has access to a unique and cost-effective learning opportunity.\u00a0 For those coming to the Annual Dinner, we\u2019ll also have an opportunity to hear more about the Gus Astley Student Award winners\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018And of course, when seeking employer support to attend the School, IHBC members ought to use their personal development plan and CPD resources to highlight the professional value of attending this key event.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>IHBC Treasurer Richard Morrice said: \u2018Costs this year have once again been kept as low as possible, so for example Day School delegate rates for IHBC members are the same as they were in 2009! \u00a0And of course we now also offer a range of bursaries to support delegates in need of additional support.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Bursary details are provided on the School website, but remember also that separate bursaries will be offered by some IHBC Branches. If you do need support please be sure to contact your local Branch as well to see if there are opportunities there.\u2019<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">NB: Early bird booking rates apply until 17 April.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">For the School website and to book see:<\/span>\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/ihbc.org.uk\/norwich2015\" target=\"_blank\">ihbc.org.uk\/norwich2015<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">For the Gus Astley Student Award see<\/span>: <a href=\"http:\/\/gasa.ihbc.org.uk\/\">gasa.ihbc.org.uk<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">For links to and feedback reports from previous Annual Schools see<\/span>: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ihbc.org.uk\/learning\/page38\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\">IHBC\u00a0Annual Schools<\/a><\/p>\n<p>For sponsorship and delegate pack opportunities contact Fiona Newton at: <a href=\"mailto:projects@ihbc.org.uk\" target=\"_blank\">projects@ihbc.org.uk<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Booking is now open for the conservation professional\u2019s key annual training programme: the IHBC\u2019s Annual and Day School, this year in Norwich in June and exploring \u2018Cultural Connections: Conserving the diversity of place\u2019, with early bird booking rates to end &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/?p=9736\">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":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-9736","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-ihbc-newsblog"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9736","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=9736"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9736\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9863,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9736\/revisions\/9863"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=9736"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=9736"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=9736"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
