Key Skills for Historic Environment Management
Our Key Skills training supports heritage professionals in the public and private sectors, particularly in management and leadership roles. It will help you develop the knowledge and skills that underpin all heritage work and lead to resilient and diverse organisations.
Programme Aims
The training will share good practice in subjects common across many sectors and industries, but with a Historic Environment focus. This will be a small programme at first, but over time will include topics such as data management, inclusivity, diversity and equality, health & wellbeing, and project management.
The training will help participants to:
- Apply key skills commonly needed to manage businesses, people, and projects in a heritage context
- Use new and emerging systems and processes
- Advocate for good practice in our sector.
Working in Projects Using MoRPHE
Historic England’s guidance on the Management of Research Projects in the Historic Environment (MoRPHE) helps you plan and run an effective project. It is written for those working on planning research projects in the historic environment. The training walks you step-by-step through the guidance and allows you to test your knowledge.
Research Ethics and Integrity
This series of short courses introduce research principles, practices and research ethics: why they are important, how you should consider them, and how they can apply to your own research.
Heritage and Wellbeing
Historic England commissioned What Works Centre for Wellbeing to create these three modules that introduce key concepts of wellbeing and the role it plays in the heritage sector. Modules focus on what is wellbeing, including its drivers and how it is measured, the interaction between wellbeing and heritage and social prescribing.
