Online Workshops

We run a range of workshops across the academic year.  They can all be found listed on the calendar of events where you register for the workshops you are interested in. Once registered, you will receive a link to the workshop room in a confirmation email.  It's worth knowing that even if you can't attend on the day, we record all our workshops and, as long as you have registered, we will send a recording of the workshop to you with a host of other helpful guides and links.
