IHBC Education Secretary Andrew Shepherd said: ‘The Institute values the importance of the recognised courses in providing the required skills for our sector.  This offer makes a unique contribution to the upskilling of course participants.’

‘So I’m delighted that the IHBC is again offering this additional support to those on conservation courses recognised by the institute.  These courses deliver content in line with the IHBC’s ICOMOS-compliant professional and specialist standards, our ‘Areas of Competence’, and can only benefit from the added financial incentives we can offer.’

IHBC Director Seán O’Reilly said: ‘With new student members on IHBC-recognised conservation courses now able to receive their first ‘taster year’ of IHBC support as Affiliate members for free, we are formally linking independent conservation education to our specialist and ethical practice standards.’

‘This way the IHBC lays the foundations both for the future careers of new members, young and old, and for the best conservation outcomes for the built and historic environment under their care’.
