Experience has shown that participants on the Institute’s training courses enrol with diverging objectives: Some enter and pursue objects conservation as a primary career, while others have a supplementary vocation in mind - or perhaps only an active retirement.
In respect to course lengths, The S.A. Institute for Objects Conservation offers an exceptional and proven curriculum path that relies on compact, introductory courses at novice level, supplemented by specialist, mid-career modules that subsequently guide the practitioner’s professional development.
Objects conservation is a profession, a science, and a highly practical field of expertise. Along with the IT specialty and others professions of our time, conservation science had gained impetus in recent decades.
