Centre for Adult Education CAE Courses

I am extremely fortunate to be a Tutor at the Centre for Adult Education (CAE), now part of Box Hill Institute.

My journey began on 30 September 2014 and I provided 112 workshops until 4 October 2022 (listed below).

As enrolment patterns changed after COVID, I took a break and I am pleased to say that I am starting up again in 2026!

I hope you can join me and the other willing learners in the future!

You’ll learn how to get your work online quickly, and even how to preserve it permanently through the free Internet Archive. More details and how to register…
