Bit of an odd one - finding a course for a few months

[MyrtlethePurpleTurtle]

Bear with with on this...

I'm having surgery early next month and won't be out and about for several months. A friend suggested I maybe do an online course to give me some structure during my convalescence with live lectures etc. (She knows me well enough to know that if I'm given a bank of online materials without the discipline of weekly lectures etc, I'll never get past the starting block).

So the question really is where I might be able to access such courses?

The courses run by my local authority are in person ones so that's not an option. My friend signposted me to courses the V&A run which is a possibility.

This sounds silly - but I really don't mind what the course is about - just really something to give me some structure while convalescing and keep my mind ticking over. Though not learning a new language - too taxing!!

Check FutureLearn

There is a list of lots of free courses on Udemy here that someone has helpfully put together:

Loads on the Open University on a whole range of topics -

Don't think they have lectures though, sorry.

The open university have hundreds (thousands?) of free courses of varying lengths available https://www.open.edu/openlearn/free-courses/full-catalogue

Some unis run moocs or make them available via futurelearn or openlearn

Lots of unis run online short courses.

https://www.citylit.ac.uk/

City Lit have a large range of online and affordable courses (if V&A is within your financial scope).

Thank you very much for the ideas and signposting -much appreciated

So many interesting courses on CityLit. Phoned them yesterday about two I'm interested in and sadly they have insufficient numbers at the moment to run the two courses. Fingers crossed people have a spurt of learning enthusiasm as the new year starts!
