Welcome to the Certified Heritage Professional (CHP) Certificate Program—a transformative learning experience for those dedicated to safeguarding the world’s cultural legacy and advancing inclusive, sustainable heritage practices.

In a time of climate change, conflict, and digital transformation, heritage connects us to our identity, fosters dialogue, and inspires collective resilience. This program goes beyond monuments and artifacts—it centers heritage as a living force for education, empathy, and peace.

Grounded in global standards such as the UNESCO World Heritage Convention, ICOMOS charters, and ICCROM training models, the CHP Certificate equips you to lead in the evolving heritage field. You will explore:

• Tangible, intangible, and natural heritage across cultures
• Policy, governance, and legal protections
• Climate-sensitive conservation and risk management
• Community engagement and inclusive heritage models
• Digital heritage tools: 3D scanning, GIS, AR, and more
• Ethical leadership and public education in heritage

Through global case studies, practical tasks, and a final strategy project, you’ll graduate as part of an international network of Certified Heritage Professionals making a meaningful impact.

Your journey begins here. Welcome!
