Many past graduates have been commended by their employers by their knowledge of traditional materials, particularly lime. There are three main ways this programme enhances employability skills:

• Delivery by specialists in conservation, this programme give the students a unique opportunity to network within the profession.
• The practical workshops give students the knowledge and understanding of traditional building materials, and an ability to specify correct remedial measures.
• The assessments are all based on industry templates – such as the Conservation Plan or a report on timber defects, or an assessment of sources of funding for a building conservation project.

These skills will enhance graduate employability and are intrinsic to professional membership of the IHBC.
