By-Request and Tailored Section 106 Training
Along with our regularly scheduled, open-enrollment courses, the ACHP offers two additional approaches to meet the Section 106 training needs of federal, state, tribal, and local agencies and other organizations:
-
By-request courses: Any of the ACHP's classroom courses can be scheduled at a location and time convenient to the course sponsor. Course content, materials, and classroom experience are the same as our open-enrollment courses, but with the ease of receiving the training at your own facility. Two of our classroom courses (Section 106 Essentials and Section 106 Agreements) can also be delivered by request via Zoom. Our Practitioners Workshop is only taught in-person. By-request courses offer cost savings for larger groups (20 or more) and can avoid or reduce travel expenditures. Courses from our series of webinars can also be scheduled by request at a cost savings for 20 or more log-ins.
-
Tailored courses: ACHP staff can develop classroom training ranging from a half day to multiple days based on your organization’s needs. We can also develop webinars or e-Learning products by request. Content, exercises, reference materials, and delivery methods can be designed to meet your organization's goals for improving federal historic preservation review and compliance programs.
E-mail us at training@achp.gov to request our assistance in meeting your Section 106 training needs and objectives.
