The Centre for Open Learning (COL) has launched its 2026/27 programme, with more than 300 short courses now available to book — offering a whole year of opportunities to learn, explore and discover something new. Whether you’re keen to learn a language, explore literature, delve into history, get creative with art and design, or simply try something different, there’s a course waiting for you. With a choice of in-person and online courses, offered at a variety of days and times, COL makes it easy to fit learning around a busy lifestyle. And lifelong learning is for everyone, whatever your age or stage.
