AE4.1 Explore conservation options for items
AE4.2 Specify conservation options for items
This unit is for archaeological conservators, people who are required to have knowledge of a range of items or specific groups of items as well as having expert knowledge the potential conservation problems that may be encountered with such items, whether individually or in groups and collections.
Once an item has been assessed, it is necessary to identify a suitable conservation plan for the item to ensure that it is properly conserved. There are likely to be a number of conservation options for the item, and it is important that each of these is considered, and that the option that is selected is the most suitable. This unit covers identifying conservation options that potentially have the capability of conserving the item and selecting the most appropriate conservation option in agreement with others.
