Our genealogy courses look at how to develop your family tree by introducing you to historical records, online searching techniques as well as learning about genealogical records and how to research databases more effectively.

Alongside learning new and exciting information about the past, our history courses provide you with a range of skills, from analysis, fact-checking and communication, through to critical thinking and debate. Covering a range of historical fields including women, Wales and Great Britain, monuments as well as family, we have something to interest everyone.

For those interested in archaeology, we offer a range of courses from an introductory level to specific principles, theories and research. Our range of courses will help students understand the principles of archaeology and learn about archaeological site identification and excavation techniques. Students can explore the interdisciplinary nature of archaeological research, incorporating insights from anthropology, history, geology, and other relevant fields as well as applying theoretical frameworks to the interpretation of archaeological data.
