Conservation Internships 2007
Educational Stipend of UKP14,500 p.a.

Icon--the Institute of Conservation--is offering 12 work-based
internships of 12 and 24 months' duration as part of its Heritage
Lottery Fund-supported conservation training bursaries scheme.
Interns will start placements across the UK in September 2007. The
scheme aims to broaden access to careers in conservation and to
increase the UK's fund of conservation skills. The majority of
placements this year are specifically for new entrants to
conservation from arts, crafts, science or general heritage-related
backgrounds. Others are for those who have recently graduated from
conservation courses. Venues include private and public sector
conservation workshops from Belfast to London, Devon to Durham in
the following conservation disciplines: stained glass, stone,
preventive and collections care, conservation science, carpets,
ceramics, frames, architectural conservation, archives and books.
