All ACE course fees include your tuition and a registration fee. They may also include a contribution towards the cost of materials, room rental, handouts, artist models, equipment or assessment fees. PLEASE NOTE: For some courses, the cost of materials is included in the course, and for others, you will be required to supply your own materials. See course description for details.

ACE courses vary in length from two-hour workshops to one academic year. The majority of courses follow an academic timetable and may include half-term, bank holiday or other breaks.

We make every effort to avoid doing this, but occasionally, it is necessary. This is why it is important for us to have your current contact information.

On completion of most courses, a learner is encouraged and expected to apply for the next level of course within their current subject or apply for a place on a course in another subject. For full details, please see Terms & Conditions.
