If you are taking more than one course, do not book your travel and accommodation until all courses are confirmed.
Courses are confirmed when they reach a predetermined number of paid participants. The earlier you pay, the earlier a course is likely to be confirmed and listed here. If a course does not attract enough participants, it might be cancelled. If this happens, we will offer you a place on another course of your choice, or a full refund. We aimed to make a decision about all courses by the end of May, but the final decision will now be made 4 June.
Please note the software and hardware requirements in the course outline. Some courses require software to be pre-installed on your own laptop. To find out more, click on the course code and read the outline, which also contains contact details for the Instructor.
If a course is fully booked email us to be added to a waiting list.
