This report was commissioned by the National Heritage Training Group (NHTG) to complement its UK-wide programme of skills needs analysis for the built heritage sector, published as traditional building craft skills.
It seeks to provide a separate assessment of the needs of UK building professionals – architects, building control officers, conservation officers and specialists, engineers, planners, surveyors and property managers – to establish their training, knowledge and skills in relation to specifying for and advising on traditional buildings and structures.
