The Heritage Conservation Branch is pleased to announce that registration is now open for two online workshops that will be held on Wednesday, October 21, 2026, and Thursday, October 22, 2026. These free workshops provide training in heritage conservation tools that will be of interest to anyone who owns, uses, manages, interprets, or regulates heritage buildings.
The workshops are designed so that they can be taken on a standalone basis, but attendance at both is recommended for maximum benefit.
Statement of Significance
Wednesday, October 21, 2026 - 1:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m.
A Statement of Significance is a document that explains why a historic place is important and identifies the features of the place that should be preserved. Using case studies and a virtual exercise, workshop participants will learn how to assess a heritage building’s heritage value, identify its character defining elements, and communicate this information in a well written Statement of Significance.
The workshops qualify for professional learning credits from the Saskatchewan Professional Planners Institute and the Saskatchewan Economic Development Alliance.
There is no registration fee, but pre-registration is required. Registrations will be accepted until Friday, October 16, 2026.
The workshops will be hosted on Microsoft Teams®. Instructions for accessing the workshops will be provided to registrants after registration closes.
