Courses in Conservation Techniques

With an average of fifty courses every year, the Ecole d'Avignon organises proficiency training courses for workers (short-term training courses of 3 to 5 days duration), available throughout France and Europe. These courses aim to allow professionals to adapt themselves to the needs of the market for rehabilitation, (materials, techniques, maintenance/ reparation), and to modify their reactions developed as a result of working on new buildings. They are generally put together following a request from professional bodies, or other operators, following the current of public funded restoration programmes.

Several hundred courses have been organised for different target groups:

  • Professionals, tradesmen and businesses
  • Architects, CAUE (advisory boards for architecture, urban development and the environment), SDAP (local authority services for architecture and heritage) and four courses per year for the CRMH (regional organisations for the conservation of historic buildings) under a contract with the DAPA (the Directorate for Architecture and Heritage)
  • Urban developers
  • Local authorities' technical services
  • Delegates of the ANAH (National Agency for Housing Improvement)
  • Trainers
  • Overseas professionals
