Adult Education Programme Courses

Edinburgh's Adult Education Programme (A E P) has been running for over 100 years, offering day, evening and weekend courses to 10,000 plus students per year.  

We are now delighted to share our new online and outdoor programme with you for courses starting in January and February 2021.

Online enrolment will start from Wednesday 6th January 2021

Please note we are offering a reduced programme this term.

Online places are limited, so we would kindly ask that you only enrol for one course on this occasion.

We look forward to welcoming back our students for the online January programme and to offering an enhanced programme later in the year, with a greater variety of courses and places available.
