Capacity building is an important part of the USAID SCHEP model for promoting the sustainable management of Jordan’s cultural heritage. From 2014 – 2018, SCHEP implemented training programs and workshops in skills related to cultural heritage conservation, management, interpretation, and presentation, for over 300 heritage professionals, recent graduates, local community members, and others. In late 2018, SCHEP implemented the Art of Mosaic Production Training for art teachers in public schools across Jordan. This training was conducted in collaboration with the Ministry of Education and the Madaba Institute of Mosaic Art and Restoration, and aimed to create opportunities for teachers to develop their knowledge of mosaic theory and history and to practice making mosaics themselves. Following this training, the teachers were able to share their knowledge and conduct mosaic-making activities with their students as a hands-on way to learn and get excited about heritage.
