Event details
These four online sessions are packed with information and insight. They were recorded in March 2026 as a way to easily meet your CPD requirements and improve your understanding of some of the hot topics in building conservation.
We've put some of the most pressing issues affecting the sector under the spotlight. Changing weather patterns, rising energy prices and evolving regulatory requirements are just some of the challenges facing traditional buildings and those who care for them. These lectures will offer valuable insights into how we can tackle these hot topics and safeguard our built heritage for the future.
Ideal for buildings professionals and students, as well as those with wider interest in heritage conservation, our expert speakers will explore where tradition meets innovation, and how the past informs the future.
