Programme description

Does your heart beat faster in museums, libraries, archives, churches and monasteries? Then perhaps you have a bean for cultural heritage. In this sector, the call for quality care is getting louder and louder: professionalising, preserving and managing, preventive conservation, and of course: taking care of the collections. Does that sound like music to your ears? Then the course 'Preservation Officer Heritage' is definitely for you. 

You will learn the basic knowledge and skills needed to handle movable cultural heritage. In five modules, you will get to know the heritage sector inside out. You will study the various materials, learn how a depot works and acquire the basics of art-handling of objects.
