Since 2016, HPEF has offered the opportunity to obtain AIA Continuing Education Learning Units by taking quizzes based on select publications in the National Park Service’s Preservation Brief series. Preservation Briefs aid architects, building owners, property managers, and conservationists, recognize and resolve problems common to historic structures, materials, and installations. The Briefs provide guidance rehabilitating historic buildings that are consistent with their historic character and the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation.
HPEF is pleased to announce the addition of a continuing education quiz for Preservation Brief 17: Architectural Character—Identifying the Visual Aspects of Historic Buildings as an Aid to Preserving their Character. The quiz joins ten other Preservation Brief quizzes all of which are open and free to the public. Some take the quizzes for continuing professional education through the AIA or other accreditation systems; others take the quizzes for their own development. If you are a preservation educator, please contact HPEF to discuss incorporating the Preservation Brief quizzes into your course.
