Career and Professional Development Courses in 2022 at
The Centre has for over 40 years responded to the needs of fellow professionals offering a programme of courses and workshops on aspects of the preservation and conservation of historic photographs. The Centre will offer a limited programme in the Spring of 2022. In November 2021 in conjunction with Conserve Photography Ltd, we are now also starting to offer online teaching courses. The first course we are releasing focusses in detail on Photographic Degradation.
The Centre's career and professional development courses offer conservators and other heritage professionals specialist training in this challenging field; enabling them to hone their practical skills and upgrade their knowledge of current developments and techniques. Course tutors are Ian L. Moor and Angela H. Moor who communicate their knowledge, expertise and passion in such a way as to bring alive the history and diversity of photography whilst still fully addressing the 21st Century problems of preserving and conserving this evocative and transient medium. Their approach can not fail to stimulate participants to a deeper understanding of, and professional growth in this demanding discipline.
Ian and Angela have been sharing their knowledge and skills with fellow heritage professionals since 1981.
Whilst the courses at The Centre are intensive the 'Moors' still manage to maintain a friendly, enjoyable and informal atmosphere.
Throughout the course participants will not only produce reference images and study materials, which complement the course notes and documentation of the work studies they will undertake, but, will also have a unique opportunity to assemble a collection of comparative historic images for identification and verification purposes.
In contrast to our in-person teaching courses where attendance at The Centre is a requirement, you can participate in these online courses from your own home or work environment. You'll be able to follow the course at a pace that suits you, without incurring travel or accommodation expenses.

The Centre also offers heritage and business institutions the opportunity to train their personnel In-house. Professional development training courses both practical or theoretical are offered in all aspects of the preservation and conservation of photographic materials, disaster preparedness, recovery and rehabilitation techniques and procedures, and enable collectors or collections managers in both the public and private sectors to more accurately identify local, geographic and in-house needs. In-house training courses are structured and tailored to your individual needs, taking advantage of economies of scale and can be scheduled in appropriate time slots.
The Centre is able to offer lectures or lecture programmes on the History and Social History of Photography and on all aspects of Photographic Preservation, Conservation and Restoration, including the handling and storage of family genealogical collections.

All participants receive a course Handbook containing relevant course notes and other related information. Whilst the courses at The Centre are intensive they still maintain a friendly, informal atmosphere.
In-person class or workshop sizes are small and, therefore, because of the limited number of places available, courses are invariably over-subscribed. You are advised to submit your application as soon as possible.
The Centre is always seeking to improve it's courses to meet needs as they arise, therefore, The Centre welcomes any suggestions for specific courses not listed arising out of a perceived need.
