Architectural Conservation CPD 2024 Programme - 5th Jun 2024 to 27th Nov 2024

Our Architectural Conservation CPD Seminars have returned for another year!

As part of Perth City Heritage Fund we deliver activities and training every year. Over the past few years this has included delivering a series of CPD talks on Architectural Conservation. If you are looking to refresh your conservation knowledge or encounter historic buildings as part of your work portfolio, but have limited knowledge of the best conservation practice to employ when approaching a project involving traditional buildings, then this is the CPD programme for you.

Traditional and historic buildings are an integral part of Perth and Kinross’s built environment with many of its population centres, such as Perth, celebrated for their rich historic character. Whilst valued, historic buildings are often considered difficult to maintain, expensive to repair and their traditional methods of construction complicated to refurbish and align with modern building regulations. This series of CPDs will give you the tools to help unlock their potential.

The new programme has now been confirmed and tickets are live on Eventbrite.

All sessions are recorded for ticket holders and attendance certificates will be provided.
