Industrial Heritage Conservation Accreditation Workshop

Icon is delight to announce the Industrial Heritage Accreditation Workshop hosted at the Imperial War Museum, Duxford.

The UK has a proud industrial heritage and yet industrial conservation skills are at risk. With a number of experienced industrial conservators nearing retirement age,  it is important to futureproof the workforce. To protect the sector, we need to maintain sufficient numbers of accredited conservators who will be able to manage and train new entrants into the profession. To this end, Icon has secured Heritage Compass funding to deliver support workshops to industrial conservators interested in accreditation.
