"Care and Conservation of Archeological Collections"

3 Week Online Class - $275

Do you have archeological collections and want to know how to care and preserve them? In this course you will learn about the materials and deterioration of artifacts, how to identify conservation problems, how to properly handle, store, exhibit, and how to safely clean and preserve many artifacts.

We will emphasize what you can do and when you need a conservator. The course has three sections: Artifact Materials and Deterioration, Condition and Treatment, Storage and Care.

There are no deadlines. It is structured so you can do the course from home or from work all on your own time and schedule. We'll have email discussions about each section's readings and resource materials. There will a written assignment at the end of the course.

This online class will give you the tools to understand, clean, and preserve archeological collections.
