During the duration of the courses, an academic conservator is available at the Hornemann Institute via telephone or email to help with technical and specialist questions. Special technical questions will be forwarded to the authors.
The courses are developed in cooperation with the restoration courses of the HAWK and are used both in teaching and in further education (supervised). They are recognized as continuing education by the Professional Association of Restorers VDR.
Since the 2025/26 winter semester onwards,we have been awarding ECTS credits as part of microcredentials.. The pilot courses for this are "Mould and Documents" and "Conservation of Globes’". A microcredential is a short academic course that concludes with a digital certificate with ECTS credits from an accredited university. This allows you to demonstrate to your employers and customers that you have specialist knowledge in a specific subject area.
