Councils across NSW & ACT are responsible for maintaining the heritage attributes of their communities. In bringing excellence in public works, IPWEA NSW & ACT has partnered with Artefact Heritage Services to bring a course designed for managing heritage, archaeology to public works and local government engineering professionals.
\n\nProjects can be complex due to heritage considerations, this course is designed to give basic training in how heritage fits into rail construction, local government, and public works projects.
\n\nArtefact Heritage Services is a team of heritage advisors providing archaeological, cultural heritage management and environmental assessment services across all of New South Wales and the Australian Capital Territory.
\n\nThis course was developed specifically for public works engineers, civil engineers, project managers, or anyone wanting basic understanding of heritage considerations for local government and public works.
