Aim of the course
If you work in a historic building, site or landscape you will want and need to share that asset with lots of other people. In order to do this you will need to market it and interpret it. This two-day course will aim to cover some of the essentials of marketing the heritage as well as to explore a variety of interpretation methods for historic properties and environments. It will look at Black Heritage and contested heritage. It will also cover disaster management in relation to historic buildings - how to plan in advance for fire and flood in order to lessen possible consequences without harming the historic building in the process.
