Now entering its twelfth year, the Certificate in Historic Preservation has offered over 100 courses, provided essential training to local historic commissions, received a grant from the New Jersey Historical Commission, and was the recipient of a 2001 New Jersey Historic Preservation Award. But most importantly, this program has awarded certificates to over 133 graduates who continue to promote the importance of historic preservation in their own community. Some have even gone on to graduate programs and new careers as a result of their experience at Drew University.
These courses are designed for anyone interested in the field of preservation: members of historic preservation commissions, town planners, attorneys and engineers. Our audience includes real estate professionals, volunteers at historic sites, owners of old or historic buildings, architects, developers and contractors, designers, and artisans in the construction field.
