Note: All scheduled Public Courses will be held as live online sessions via Zoom, until further notice. Our online courses are designed to maximise the benefit of "face" time while balancing the attention span of the online format. There is no compromise in content or learning activities, which we have ensured is the same as in our face-to-face programmes.
