The Centre for Lifelong Learning offers an exciting range of courses for learners who are looking for an accredited course or to study for pleasure.
2022/23 Programme Update
For the 2022/23 academic year, we will be offering a mix of course modes for both long and short courses with some courses remaining on Zoom, but many now being offered back in the classroom.
Please ensure when you make a booking for a course that the mode of delivery meets with personal requirements - each course is only offered via one delivery mode.
We have now released the details for our Accredited Modules, Learning for Pleasure Courses, and our Saturday Courses. All course information is available online through this website, and we would encourage you to register at your earliest convenience as many courses sell out quickly.
Students signing up to work towards a Certficate of Higher Education should bear in mind that for future terms they may need to attend courses in York, in person.
Again, we thank all our learners for their support during these challenging times, and we will continue to keep you updated about the programme over the course of the current academic year.
The Centre also offers a reduction in course fees for people receiving benefits: any such reduction is at the discretion of the Head of Lifelong Learning and appropriate evidence must be supplied with the application. Please contact the Centre for more information about eligible benefits and reduced fees.
