They will be responsible for developing and maintaining the curriculum with the realm of study under their purview and organising a faculty.

The Iyandolin School of Methods is the part that would have a focus on the "civilian" skills of industry (masonry, craftsmanship, forestry, husbandry ect ect) which papermaking ect would fall under the broad umbrella of. The Law school covers scribing and the collection of less directly practical knowledge.
