The Heritage Management Organization (HERITΛGE) was established in November 2008 with the goal of enabling key heritage managers, through targeted training, to independently transform heritage assets from decaying objects of study to dynamic sources of learning, community identity and economic development.

The Heritage Management Organization trains professionals in the management of heritage sites, independently of project specifics. Training practitioners in the essential skills and best practices which define heritage management is at the heart of the HERITΛGE mission.

Since its founding HERITΛGE has trained more than 2000 current and future heritage managers from more than 100 countries in various aspects of cultural resource management, leveraging the expertise of experts, volunteers, partner organizations, members and supporters from around the world, and is now on course to impact a quarter of global heritage hotspots by the year 2025.

HERITΛGE runs a backbone education series for practitioners with a minimum of five years experience, Executive Leadership Workshops  for leading professionals, summer field schools for senior students and junior practitioners and an MA in Heritage Management training both current and future heritage managers.
