Course Help Please

Kegsey, 17 July, 2009 at 12:59 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 7

I fancy doing a course - not for any career advancing reason, just in something that interests me. I'm thinking either gardening or photography, or maybe something sewing related. I've tried to find what is in my local area but I'm not coming up with much. Which is why I'm asking here to see if someone else has a way of finding something. It has to be evenings and preferably not weekends (or at least not every weekend). I live in Leicester. Please help!

    Try ringing local independent colleges: most of the ones round our way do evening courses of some ilk.

    Also if you google adult learning you might get some idea that might help?

    Our local tech runs violin making courses. I am soooooo tempted.

    Have you looked at the Hot Courses website?

    Sorry I couldn't get back on yesterday to say thankyou. Thankyou everyone. I've checked out the sites you recommended and found things I hadn't previously but nothing is catching my eye (well, no evening courses anyway). I haven't phoned anywhere - I'm too shy ?. Oh well, so much for that idea.

    Try the university, the uni I work for has an adult education centre that does short taster courses at below degree level - local history and the like

    Hello

    I live in Leicestershire and have done a couple of evening courses via "Go Learn"

    https://www.leicestershire.gov.uk/

    They have courses all over the county.

    Good Luck - I'm looking for my next adventure. Not sure what to do yet.

    Sx

    I've checked both local universities and go learn and haven't found anything. Its looking like the course I want to do, doesn't exist.

    Thankyou for all your help.
