Arkansas Institute for Building Preservation Trades

The Arkansas Institute for Building Preservation Trades offers a practical, hands-on program that culminates in the two-year degree: Associate of Applied Science in Historic Preservation Trades. It was created by collaboration between the Arkansas Historic Preservation Program of the Department of Arkansas Heritage and Phillips Community College of the University of Arkansas. The Institute was established to address the need for artisans who are comprehensively trained in the traditional preservation trades. Students learn skills and methods to maintain, rehabilitate, and restore historic buildings in a curriculum that blends classroom theory and workshop practice. The Institute is located on the levee of the Mississippi River in Helena, Arkansas, and opened its doors to students in the fall of 2000.
