Appendix F: The Secretary of the Interior's
Historic Preservation Professional Qualification Standards
The Secretary of the Interior's Professional Qualification Standards were defined and officially adopted in 1983
(48 FR 44716, September 29) by the National Park Service, Department of the Interior, and the Secretary of the
Interior's Historic Preservation Professional Qualification Standards were expanded and revised in 1997 (62 FR
33708, June 20) in response to amendments in the National Historic Preservation Act, but were not formally
adopted for federal regulatory purposes. See https://www.nps.p-ov/history/local-law/gis/htmi/introduction.htmi
for more information.
The 1997 revisions update the professional qualification standards written in 1983 and add definitions for seven
other historic preservation disciplines that appear in the National Historic Preservation Act.
The 1997 version also provides guidance on how to measure qualifying credentials that was lacking in the 1983
Standards. In the 1997 version, this information is provided in a standardized format that provides examples of
the academic degrees, work and academic products, and professional activities that would qualify a professional
in a particular discipline.
Because the 1997 Standards give the clearest description of the current understanding of what a qualified
professional is in each of the disciplines described in the National Historic Preservation Act, AHPP uses them
as guidance on judging the qualifications of contractors or consultants working on projects funded by AHPP
grant agreements. It is important to note that these are not intended to be requirements for ALL consultants or
contractors working on a project, lead as well as entry-level. However, each project must contain a person in a
lead, responsible project role with the requisite expertise.

HISTORIC PRESERVATION PROFESSIONAL QUALIFICATION STANDARDS
ARCHEOLOGY
Archeology is the study ofpast human lifeways through the systematic observation, analysis, and
protection of the material remains of human activities.
STANDARD FOR ARCHEOLOGIST
(A) Prehistoric:
The applicant, employee, consultant, or advisor will have a graduate degree in Anthropology with
a specialization in Prehistoric Archeology, or a graduate degree in Archeology with a
specialization in Prehistoric Archeology, or a graduate degree in a closely related field (see
Academic Background for Archeology), PLUS a minimum of two and one-half (2 1/2) years of
full-time professional experience in applying the theories, methods, and practices of Archeology
that enables professional judgments to be made about the identification, evaluation,
documentation, registration, or treatment of prehistoric archeological properties in the United
States and its Territories (at least six months of experience must have been acquired in the
performance of field and analytical activities under the supervision of a professional prehistoric
archeologist, and one year of experience in the study of the archeological resources of the
prehistoric period must have been at a supervisory level); AND products and activities that
demonstrate the successful application of acquired proficiencies in the discipline to the practice of
historic preservation (see Documenting Professional Experience for Archeologists).
(B) Historical.
The applicant, employee, consultant, or advisor will have a graduate degree in Anthropology with
a specialization in Historical Archeology, or a graduate degree in Archeology with a
specialization in Historical Archeology, or a graduate degree in a closely related field (see
Academic Background for Archeology), PLUS a minimum of two and one-half (2 1/2) years of
full-time professional experience applying the theories, methods, and practices of Archeology
that enables professional judgments to be made about the identification, evaluation,
documentation, registration, or treatment of historic archeological properties in the United States
and its Territories (at least six months of experience must have been acquired in the performance
of field and analytical activities under the supervision of a professional Historical Archeologist,
and one year of experience in the study of the archeological resources of the historic period must
have been at a supervisory level); AND products and activities that demonstrate the successful
application of acquired proficiencies in the discipline to the practice of historic preservation (see
Documenting Professional Experience for Archeologists).
ACADEMIC BACKGROUND FOR ARCHEOLOGIST
Closely related fields: Anthropology, with a specialization in Archeology, is the typical degree discipline
for archeologists practicing in the United States. One of the usual requirements for receiving the degree is
completion of an archeological field school in which the student learns about techniques of survey,
excavation, and laboratory processing. However, degree programs have also been established in
Archeology, Cultural Resources Management, Historical Archeology, and Public Archeology. Some
Historical Archeology programs are housed in History, Public History, or American Studies Departments.
For these degrees, a list of courses taken should be reviewed to determine if the program is equivalent to
that typically provided for a degree in Anthropology with a specialization in Archeology, including
course work in archeological methods and theory, archeology of a geographic region (e.g., North
America), and the field school.
Discipline specializations: The most prevalent specializations in Archeology include Historical
Archeology or Prehistoric Archeology, i.e., the specialization in resources of either the prehistoric period
or the historic period. These specializations necessarily require expertise in different types of sites and
different sources of information about past human activities. For example, a prehistoric archeologist
usually requires a knowledge of environmental sciences, while a historical archeologist needs to
understand the techniques of archival research. Additional specialized training and experience is also
required for those specializing in, for example, underwater archeology, physical anthropology (human
bones and burials), forensic archeology, or zoo -archeology (non -human bones). In addition, archeologists
typically specialize in the archeological resources of a particular time period, geographic region, resource
type, or research subject.
APPLYING THE STANDARD FOR ARCHEOLOGIST
Documenting Professional Experience: A professional archeologist typically has experience in field
survey, site testing, site excavation, artifact identification and analysis, documents research, and report
preparation. Supervised field experience as a graduate student may be counted as part of the overall 2 1/2
year professional experience requirement.
A Prehistoric Archeologist meeting this Standard would document one year of supervisory experience in
the study of prehistoric archeological sites; a Historical Archeologist would document one year of
supervisory experience in the study of sites of the historic period.
The two archeologist specializations of Prehistoric Archeology and Historic Archeology are not
interchangeable. Documentation to show that someone qualifies in both Prehistoric and Historic
Archeology should include a minimum of one additional year of supervisory experience on resources of
the other specialty, for a total of 3 1/2 years of experience, with products and activities in both
specializations.
Products and activities: Professional experience and expertise must be documented through "products
and activities that demonstrate the successful application of acquired proficiencies in the discipline to the
practice of historic preservation." Products and activities that meet the appropriate Secretary Standards for
Archeology and Historic Preservation may include:
• Survey and excavation reports of cultural resource management or Section 106 (or other
compliance) projects. These reports are typically called "grey literature;" they often have
multiple authors and are usually produced in limited quantities by consulting firms.
• National Register documentation resulting in property listings or Determinations of
Eligibility.
• Materials such as presentations, booklets, brochures, lesson plans, or videos that interpret the
results of archeological investigation for the general public
• Publications including articles in professional journals, monographs, books, or chapters in
edited books, related to the preservation of historic or archeological properties.
• Presentations at regional, national, or international professional conferences related to the
preservation of historic or archeological properties.
• Professional service on boards or committees of regional, national, or international
professional organizations concerned with the preservation of historic or archeological
properties.
• Awards, research grants, research fellowships, or invitations to teaching posts.
This list is not comprehensive. Furthermore, it should be understood that not all of these products and
activities are needed in order to meet the Standard; rather, a combination of several products and activities
would be more typical. If the applicant were documenting professional experience in one of the
specializations, however, the majority of products and activities would naturally reflect that
specialization.
HISTORIC PRESERVATION PROFESSIONAL QUALIFICATION STANDARDS
CULTU RA L ANTHROPOLOGY
Cultural anthropology is the description and analysis of cultural systems, which include systems of
behaviors (economic, religious, social), values, ideologies, and social arrangements.
STANDARD FOR CULTURAL ANTHROPOLOGIST
(a) The applicant, employee, consultant, or advisor will have a graduate degree in Anthropology with a
specialization in Applied Cultural Anthropology, or a closely related field (see Academic Background for
Cultural Anthropology), PLUS a minimum of two (2) years of full-time professional experience
(including at least six months of field work supervised by a professional Cultural Anthropologist)
applying the theories, methods, and practices of Cultural Anthropology that enables professional
judgments to be made about the identification, evaluation, documentation, registration, or treatment of
historic, prehistoric, or traditional cultural properties in the United States and its Territories; AND
products and activities that demonstrate the successful application of acquired proficiencies in the
discipline to the practice of historic preservation (see Documenting Professional Experience for Cultural
Anthropologists);
W7114
(b) An undergraduate degree in Anthropology or a closely related field (see Academic Background for
Cultural Anthropology), with a specialization in Applied Cultural Anthropology, PLUS a minimum of
four (4) years of full-time professional experience (including at least twelve months of field work
supervised by a professional Cultural Anthropologist) applying the theories, methods, and practices of
Cultural Anthropology that enables professional judgments to be made about the identification,
evaluation, documentation, registration, or treatment of historic, prehistoric, or traditional cultural
properties in the United States and its Territories; AND products and activities that demonstrate the
successful application of acquired proficiencies in the discipline to the practice of historic preservation
(See Documenting Professional Experience for Cultural Anthropologists).
ACADEMIC BACKGROUND FOR CULTURAL ANTHROPOLOGIST
Closely related fields: A degree in Anthropology with a specialization in Applied Cultural Anthropology
is the typical degree discipline for Cultural Anthropologists practicing in the United States. Closely
related fields of study may include Sociology, Cultural Geography, Folklife, History, and American
Studies.
Discipline specializations: Specializations in this discipline include Applied Cultural Anthropology, and
Social Anthropology (which may be considered the most closely related to Cultural Anthropology; some
academic programs even combine them, referring to Sociocultural Anthropology). Departments of
Anthropology typically provide training in Archeology, Physical Anthropology, Ethnography, and
Sociocultural Anthropology, and they may offer Applied Anthropology concentrations in one or more of
these fields. Professional Cultural Anthropologists tend to specialize geographically (such as in the
Southwest United States, Micronesia or New England) or topically (such as Medical Anthropology or
Urban Anthropology), or in working with particular cultural or linguistic groups (such as fishermen, Irish
immigrants, or Northwest Coast Indians).
APPLYING THE STANDARD FOR CULTURAL ANTHROPOLOGIST
Documenting Professional Experience: A professional Cultural Anthropologist typically has experience in
the use of ethnohistoric and ethnographic techniques, including participant observation field work among
one or more contemporary ethnic groups. The typical Cultural Anthropologist would also have performed
field survey to identify and assess ethnographic resources, which can include, in addition to historic and
cultural places of value, environmental features and places that have symbolic and other cultural value for
Native American and/or other ethnic communities. A Cultural Anthropologist engaged in substantial
ethnographic field work should demonstrate professional experience in the relevant geographic area
and/or among the New World peoples, immigrant, ethnic, or minority communities with whom they will
work.
Products and activities: Professional experience and expertise must be documented through "products
and activities that demonstrate the successful application of acquired proficiencies in the discipline to the
practice of historic preservation." Products and activities that meet the appropriate Secretary's Standards
for Archeology and Historic Preservation may include:
• Ethnographic field studies and survey reports, oral histories, or social impact assessments.
• National Register documentation of ethnographic resources or traditional cultural properties
resulting in property listings or Determinations of Eligibility.
• Publications, which might include articles in regional, national, or international professional
journals, monographs, books, or chapters in edited books, related to the documentation and
preservation of historic and archeological resources, and/or traditional cultural properties.
• Presentations at regional, national, or international professional conferences, symposia,
workshops or exhibits related to the documentation and preservation of historic and
archeological resources, and/or traditional cultural properties.
• Professional service on boards or committees or regional, national, or international
professional organizations concerned with the documentation and preservation of historic and
archeological resources.
• Awards, research grants, research fellowships, or invitations to teaching posts.
This list is not comprehensive. Furthermore, it should be understood that not all of these products and
activities are needed in order to meet the Standard; rather, a combination of several products and activities
would be more typical. If the applicant were documenting professional experience in one of the
specializations, however, the majority of products and activities would naturally reflect that
specialization.
HISTORIC PRESERVATION PROFESSIONAL QUALIFICATION STANDARDS
CURATION
Curation is the practice of documenting, managing, preserving, and interpreting museum collections
according to professional museum and archival practices.
STANDARD FOR CURATOR
(a) The applicant, employee, consultant, or advisor will have a graduate degree in Museum Studies or a
closely related field of study (see Academic Background for Curation), PLUS a minimum of two (2)
years of full-time professional experience applying the theories, methods, and practices of Curation that
enables professional judgments to be made about the identification, evaluation, documentation, preventive
care, or interpretation of collections associated with historic and prehistoric properties in the United States
and its Territories; AND products and activities that demonstrate the successful application of acquired
proficiencies in the discipline to the practice of historic preservation (see Documenting Professional
Experience for Curators);
3
(b) An undergraduate degree in Museum Studies or a closely related field of study (see Academic
Background for Curation), PLUS a minimum of four (4) years of full-time professional experience
applying the theories, methods, and practices of Curation that enables professional judgments to be made
about the identification, evaluation, documentation, preventive care, or interpretation of collections
associated with historic and prehistoric properties in the United States and its Territories; AND products
and activities that demonstrate the successful application of acquired proficiencies in the discipline to the
practice of historic preservation (see Documenting Professional Experience for Curator).
ACADEMIC BACKGROUND FOR CURATOR
Closely related fields: A degree program called Museum Studies in one academic institution might be
called Museum Science or Museology in another institution. Since Curators often specialize in particular
disciplines, those fields of study would be relevant provided that theoretical as well as hands-on training
was also obtained in museum methods and techniques, including collections care and management.
Examples of relevant fields could include American Studies, Anthropology, Archeology, Art History,
Archival or Library Science, History, Biology, Botany, Chemistry, Physics, Engineering, Geology,

ACADEMIC BACKGROUND FOR ENGINEERING
Closely related fields: The Bachelor of Civil Engineering degree is a five-year degree that is unlikely to
include historic preservation course work. The same is true of a Masters of Civil Engineering degree. An
Engineer with an Engineering degree is well grounded in all aspects of engineering practice, including
design, planning, construction specifications, and contract administration. Although this background is
essential, additional training is needed in order to understand and work with historic structures, sites, and
machines, with their complex material evolution and treatment problems. Specialized training, to
supplement that provided by the professional Engineering program, should be acquired in such areas as
American Architectural and Engineering History, History of Technology, Architectural Preservation,
Conservation, Historic Construction Technologies, Historic Building Materials, Historical Archeology,
and Historic Preservation.
Discipline specialization: Civil Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, and
Structural Engineering are typical specializations within the broader discipline of Engineering. The two
specializations most often used in historic preservation projects are Civil and Structural Engineering.
Occasionally, there may be the need for a Mechanical Engineer to address issues concerning historic
machinery such as locomotives, steam engines, water turbines, electric generators, and similar machines
and equipment, or particularly complex mechanical systems in a historic structure.
APPLYING THE STANDARD FOR ENGINEERING
Documenting Professional Experience: To be licensed by a State Government as a professional
Engineer, an individual must pass a written exam and successfully fulfill education, training, and
experience requirements. In addition, a professional Historical Engineer has both theoretical knowledge
and technical skill associated with preserving historic structures and machines, and with the application of
Engineering theories, methods, and practices that enables professional judgments to be made about the
evaluation, documentation, or treatment of historic structures and machines in the United States and its
Territories. A professional Historical Engineer typically has gained experience on structural preservation
projects, which have included research and detailed investigations of historic structures or mechanical
artifacts and preparation of recommendations for the treatment of such properties in order to preserve
them in accordance with the appropriate Secretary's Standards for Archeology and Historic Preservation
(particularly the Secretary's St dards for the Treatment of Historic Properties).
Products and activities: Professional experience and expertise must be documented through "products
and activities that demonstrate the successful application of acquired proficiencies in the discipline to the
practice of historic preservation." Products and activities that meet the Secretary Standards for
Archeology and Historic Preservation may include:
• Plans and Specifications for the preservation, rehabilitation, or restoration of historic
structures, such as bridges, dams, canal locks, and for the structural rehabilitation or seismic
stabilization of buildings.
• Adaptive reuse or feasibility studies that make recommendations for preserving or
structurally stabilizing historic structures, including bridges.
• Historic Structure Reports or Condition Assessments of historic structures or machines.
• Documentation that meets HABS/HAER standards for recording historic structures or
machines.
• Experience applying the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for the Treatment of Historic

(b) An undergraduate degree in History or a closely related field of study (see Academic Background for
History), PLUS a minimum of four (4) years of full-time professional experience applying the theories,
methods, and practices of History that enables professional judgements to be made about the
identification, evaluation, documentation, registration, or treatment of historic properties in the United
States and its Territories; AND products and activities that demonstrate the successful application of
acquired proficiencies in the discipline to the practice of historic preservation (see Documenting
Professional Experience for Historians).
ACADEMIC BACKGROUND FOR HISTORIAN
Closely related fields: For this Standard, the professional degree is typically awarded in History,
American History, or Public History. Relevant training can be obtained in programs of American Studies,
American Civilization, Historical or Cultural Geography, Anthropology, Ethnohistory, and Historic
Preservation, providing that course work is offered in historical research methods and techniques.
Education in the social and cultural history of countries other than North America may be relevant when
dealing with the histories of immigrant, ethnic or minority groups in the United States.
Discipline specializations: Professional Historians tend to concentrate their education and experience in
one of the many chronological, regional, and topical specializations within American History (such as
colonial history, southern history, community history, women's history, military history, history of
technology, or industrial history).
APPLYING THE STANDARD FOR HISTORIAN
Documenting Professional Experience: A professional Historian has experience in archival and primary
documents research, evaluating and synthesizing this information, and preparation of scholarly narrative
histories. Historic research experience in countries other than North America may be relevant when
researching the histories of immigrant, ethnic or minority groups in the United States of America.
Products and activities: Professional experience and expertise must be documented through "products
and activities that demonstrate the successful application of acquired proficiencies in the discipline to the
24
practice of historic preservation." Products and activities that meet the appropriate Secretary's Standards
for Archeology and Historic Preservation may include:
• National Register documentation that has resulted in property listings or Determinations of
Eligibility.
• Documentation that meets HABS/HAER standards for recording historic properties.
• Survey reports assessing the significance of historic properties.
• Publications, which might include articles in regional, national, or international professional
journals, monographs, books, or chapters in edited books, related to documenting and
evaluating the significance of historic properties.
• Presentations at regional, national or international professional conferences, symposia,
workshops, or exhibits related to documenting and evaluating historic properties.
• Professional service on boards or committees of regional, national, or international
professional organizations concerned with documenting and evaluating the significance of
historic properties.
• Awards, research grants, research fellowships, or invitations to teaching posts.
This list is not comprehensive. Furthermore, it should be understood that not all of these products and
activities are needed in order to meet the Standard; rather, a combination of several products and activities
would be more typical. If the applicant were documenting professional experience in one of the
specializations, however, the majority of products and activities would naturally reflect that
specialization.
