It is directed towards professionals who have been working for some years within the field of wood conservation. The ICWCT covers a wide range of interdisciplinary topics relating to both buildings and objects made of wood. Theoretical and practical aspects of wood conservation are given equal consideration. Interesting cultural heritage sites constructed in wood will be visited during the course. \nAim and objectives\nThe aim of the course is to promote cultural understanding and research in the field of wood conservation\, and to be a valuable resource for the work of the individual participants in their respective countries. The main objectives of the course are:\n• to establish a basic knowledge of wood\, and the processing and use of wood\, both structurally and decoratively;\n• to give participants the theoretical and practical knowledge essential for diagnosing the causes of deterioration\, and for selecting the most appropriate methods of conservation and restoration of wood;\n• to extend the knowledge of participants beyond their own professions for a broader understanding of different aspects and approaches to wood conservation;\n• to bring people with various professions from different countries and cultures together for a mutual learning experience\, drawing on different experiences\, practices and approaches to wood conservation and use of wooden materials. \nThe course programme\nFor the first time\, the ICWCT 2018 course programme will be divided into two main components:\n1. A 5-week compulsory on-line introductory section where participants will have access to a digital platform from their respective home countries. Allow for at least 5 hours per week of interactive preparatory study with various exercises and papers to be submitted.\n2. A 4-week full-time workshop in Oslo. The workshop includes lectures\, practical conservation exercises\, field studies\, museum visits and excursions. \nThe curriculum includes distinct but interconnected units covering aspects of: properties of wood; factors affecting the decay of wood; principles of conservation\, preventive conservation; conservation of objects and painted surfaces\, archaeological wood and furniture; conservation of wooden buildings and structures.\, including wood working tools and machinery. The course will include an onsite practical workshop and a study tour to selected wooden heritage sites in Norway. As a part of the programme\, each participant is expected to give a 20-minute presentation from his or her work experience in their own country. \nLecturers\nLecturers from Norway and other countries will be contributing to the course. All are recognized experts within the field of conservation and with various backgrounds and professional experience. \nExam\nThe course concludes with an exam\, giving 15 university credits if passed. A full-time presence and active participation during both the on-line component and the course period in Oslo is required to be allowed to submit the exam and to obtain the course certificate. \nFees\nCourse participation is free of charge for the selected participants. \nTravel\, Accommodation and Living Expenses\nParticipants will be responsible for their round-trip travel costs to Oslo\, Norway.
