  • If your employer is paying for you, please note that the invoiced fee is 50% more than the subsidised standard fee.
  • Explore the ideas of some of the greatest philosophers the world has known. Learn the skills of a historian, and discover more about the development of human ideas and beliefs over the centuries. Explore contemporary social, political and economic issues, and scrutinise the clichés that crowd our minds. Or start teacher-training, making possible a new career. Whatever the subject, these courses will enable you to become a more rigorous thinker, and strengthen or test your beliefs through discussion and debate with others.
