Stained Glass Master class – Repair & Restoration

Repair and Restoration was rightly to be taught at the Certificate IV and Diploma level in a proposed AQF accredited training for the industry. It is not until you have gained a range of knowledge and skills in the basic construction of stained glass and leadlights that you are able to grasp the complexities of high quality repair and restoration.
This course introduces a range of types of repairs and techniques (current and historical). This course places repair and restoration within the context of building, art and architecture from legislative implications and requirements to debates on methodologies.
