by BUBBLES no wonder
Published Sep. 30, 2008

The Preservation Trades School in September is a precursor to Edgecombe Community College’s new continuing education certificate program in Historic Preservation Trades. Six continuing education courses are required to complete the program. Each course meets for two weekends on Saturdays and Sundays.

The classes will be held at historic sites in Edgecombe County or on the Tarboro campus of Edgecombe Community College. A certificate in Historic Preservation Trades will be earned after completion of the six continuing education courses.

 

October Class on Southern Architecture

A class on “Southern Architecture” will be held October 11 & 12 and October 25 & 26, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day. The workshop will feature four experts in architecture history and building trades. Each day will cover a different time period, followed by a tour of period structures in the area.

The class will meet on the Tarboro campus in the Fleming Building, Room 113. Tuition for the Southern Architecture class is $60. In addition, the two required books will cost $50 total.
