The Advanced Certificate in Antique Textile Conservation (Advanced) course at Stanmore School of Business was a great experience for me. As a Brazilian conservator, I was looking to gain more knowledge about the latest techniques and methods in textile conservation. The course provided me with a solid foundation in the principles of textile conservation, and I appreciated the focus on practical applications. The instructors were friendly and approachable, and the course materials were well-organized and easy to follow. One of the things that I found particularly useful was the section on textile cleaning and stabilization. I had previously struggled with these techniques, but the course provided me with the confidence and skills to tackle even the most challenging projects. My only suggestion for improvement would be to include more examples from non-European contexts, as this would help to make the course more relevant to students from diverse backgrounds. Overall, I would recommend this course to anyone looking to improve their textile conservation skills.
