Friends of New Jersey Heritage sponsors a variety of programming throughout the year, including Best Practices workshops and our signature event, the New Jersey History and Historic Preservation Conference. We will also share events by other organizations that may be of interest to our audience.
New Jersey History and Historic Preservation Conference
The next New Jersey History and Historic Preservation conference is scheduled for June 17-18, 2026 in Morris County. The annual conference equips history and historic preservation professionals and volunteers in the fields of architecture, planning, heritage site and museum management, public history, archaeology, municipal preservation commissions, county heritage offices, developers, students, and more with strategies and tools to meet the evolving practice of preservation.
Certificate Program in Historic Preservation at Rutgers Camden
There’s no better place to learn the processes and techniques of historic preservation than the living laboratory of Camden and nearby Philadelphia. The Historic Preservation Continuing Education Program at Rutgers University-Camden was launched in 2016 and is now offering a Certificate in Historic Preservation.
- Designed for those who desire to gain a deeper understanding of the vocabulary and discipline of historic preservation, students will learn from professionals working in the field to gain a more realistic perspective on how the tangible remains of our past can be integrated within current environments.
- The certificate program is not a degree program, but it can be used to supplement a student’s work in an allied field, such as history or architecture. Participation in the certificate program does not require matriculation at Rutgers. Students may begin course work at any time and take classes in any sequence. Students can complete the program at their own pace but must fulfill all of the requirements.
