The Centre for Lifelong Learning (CLL)

      The Centre for Lifelong Learning, which is part of the University of Essex, offers an exciting range of courses for adult learners of all ages. Whether you are studying for fun or to gain qualifications, CLL offers a wide choice of daytime, evening and Saturday courses, as well as study tours and day schools.
      We hope you will find the right course for you. Courses are open to anyone aged 18 or over, regardless of qualifications.
      Many students on our programmes will not have studied since leaving school, while others may have a degree but are looking to learn about a new subject area. If you are worried about returning to learning after a long break we offer a Study Skills course aimed at easing your fears about study techniques.
      Courses range from Art and Archaeology to Film Studies and Family History, Creative Writing and Current Affairs to Media Studies. The Centre provides a modern, well-equipped learning environment on the University's campus.
