The published participant groups are cultural resource and environmental consultants; federal, state, local, and tribal officials and planners; and curators and collections managers.
It is most useful for newcomers to federal historic preservation compliance, such as cultural resource consultants, government and tribal planners, and collections managers, since the seminar covers the basics of the Section 106 process, eligibility and consultation. Instructors come from a state historic preservation office, Virginia DHR/Maryland Historical Trust and firms like HNTB, and an attendee reported finishing a first Section 106 documentation project afterward, but experienced practitioners would find an introductory course repetitive.
Participants at preservation and cultural resource training seminars usually wear business casual or casual clothes, such as khakis and a collared shirt, since it is a classroom-style course.
