The RSN offers many different ways to complete the C&D programme. One choice is onsite Intensive Courses. As the name suggests these courses are highly focussed and although can be challenging, they are enjoyable at the same time. The format varies slightly depending on which venue you choose, but each course includes eight days of tuition interspersed with a few additional stitching days.
Though not mandatory, it is possible to complete one module of the C&D programme during an intensive – from sampling to mounting the finished work. Some students even enrol for our Summer Intensives at Hampton Court Palace for all four certificate modules!
Intensives can be combined with the other tuition options, regular day sessions and/or online C&D courses and online day sessions.
The list below gives details of all the upcoming intensive courses until August 2025. Students registered for the C&D programme can book these courses directly on Bookeo.
Format A is two x four-day tuition sessions with a gap for stitching between each of the two sessions. Two sessions are equivalent to an eight-day module.
Format B is eight days tuition spread over 12 days. The non-tuition days are for stitching.
