| Training has been a key goal of APT since its founding in 1968. Our training courses help specialists hone their skills and offer participants hands-on experience with such problems as the deterioration of wood, stone, and concrete. Training courses also provide opportunities to explore specialized fields such as preservation engineering and landscape conservation.
