Full Short Course Programme

This is our latest programme of short courses for Parents and Professionals. 

You can read about each of them in more detail using the menu on the right. Booking forms should be sent as soon as possible, with payment or invoicing instructions. Places are allocated on a first-come first-served basis and we will confirm your place, with information on the venue and timings, as soon as we can. Please do get in touch if you need to change any details of your booking.

Cost

The fee for most one day short courses is £85* per day which includes lunch and refreshments. Our School Open Days for Professionals cost £30.  Please refer to individual course details for the cost of other options including BSA accredited training and longer courses.

* We are able to offer a special rate of £40 for Parents on all Short Courses (except BSA accredited courses).

Mary Hare tries to keep the cost of its short courses as low as possible.  For this reason, delegates needing BSL interpretation for a short course will need to use their 'Access to Work' allowance to provide their own BSL support.
