When we identify a need, we act swiftly to arrange small group workshops, to help students increase their skills in particular areas. Sometimes, these are requested or sponsored by different organisations, and sometimes they are held to provide extra studying opportunities for our existing students.
Obviously, the 2020 pandemic prevented any planned workshops taking place this year, however we are currently planning an online workshop for the end of the summer holidays, and face-to-face workshops at the start of 2021, so keep an eye out for future opportunities.
Previous workshops:
