Workshop Overview:

Guiding Principles for Field-Based Historic Preservation is ideal for field personnel who work directly on historic structures and/or cultural landscapes and seek to feel more empowered when making historic preservation treatment decisions. Participants will learn how to make preservation treatment recommendations using national standards and guidelines. Through case studies, discussions, and hands-on activities, participants will learn how to apply fundamental historic preservation concepts in developing treatment recommendations.
