How to enrol for courses

students enrolling at receptionEnrolments can be made online, by post, fax and in person. Unfortunately, we are unable to accept telephone enrolments.

Demand for courses can be high and places fill up quickly. We advise you to enrol early in order to avoid disappointment.

If we receive your enrolment form but your chosen course is fully subscribed or cancelled we will contact you. You can enrol on an alternative course or, if the course is full, join the course waiting list in case a place becomes available or a new course is added.


Enrolment online
To complete an online application form simply search the courses available. You can then add courses to your shopping cart from the course details page (reached by clicking on the title or the code of the course). You will need to register with our site to complete your enrolment form.

A separate online enrolment form needs to be completed for each person who wants to enrol. You are unable to request two places on one individual course. 

Please note that submitting your online application form does not guarantee you a place on your course. We will check availability and respond to your request within two working days. Your payment will only be processed once we have confirmed that you have a place on the course of your choice.

We regret that enrolment at concessionary rates can only be made online by Senior Citizens who have already submitted their concessionary ID. For all other concessions, please enrol at Reception or by post with the necessary documents.  

If you have any problems with this service please email us.

Enrolment in person
You can enrol at reception between 9.00am - 8.30pm from Monday to Friday. Enrolment forms are available at reception but for speed we recommend that you download and complete a form in advance. We are located in the heart of the City of London, close to the vibrant areas of Spitalfields and Shoreditch. See the How to find us page for directions.
