Overview

Graduate Certificate - Cultural Heritage Conservation and Management

The fundamental role of the conservation professional is to preserve and conserve, as appropriate, cultural property for present and future generations. 

This two-year Ontario College graduate certificate at Fleming College is an intensive, fast-paced learning experience that you will undertake in four consecutive semesters

You'll start your classes in September and spend your first three semesters, during the fall, winter and summer, at the college. 

Following your introduction to the field of conservation, you will gain valuable, applied and skills-based experience in the care and handling of most common museum materials. 

The updated curriculum reflects a focus on hands-on skills, experienced-based learning, practical applications, beyond best practices and professional standards rooted in ethical applications. 

Once you've learned the theory and practical skills, you'll treat museum artifacts from local, regional, and national sites. 

Complementary courses, workshops, assignments, and community-based projects will offer off-campus opportunities to practice conservation methods. 

A full-time, unpaid, curriculum-based internship in your final semester (September to December) provides an invaluable learning and work experience.

Please note: This program is extremely time-intensive, including class time, lab time, demonstrations and simulations, site visits, twilight classes, working in situ on applied projects and working in teams. 

Students who are able to fully commit their time to enjoy the most success, and benefit greatly from the program's authentic learning experience and assessments.
