Welcome to MANCENT,

The Manchester Continuing Education Network (MANCENT), is a loose network of independent lecturers and students with a firm belief that Continuing Education at a high level should be available to all who want it.

It tries to match interested students with highly qualified and experienced Continuing Education and Universiy lecturers in the Arts and Sciences.

 How it works:

MANCENT operates as a loose network allowing independent self-employed lecturers to choose their own fees and venues, while offering students the convenience of a one stop shop when looking for courses in their field of interest, by offering a joint listing of all events.

Dear all,

Summer 2012

The summer programme is now complete, and I hope you find something of interest in our offers.

This term three of our new lecturers, Margaret Curtis (Ancient World and Philosophy), Antonia Hutchinson (Spanish) and Peter Finch (Art and Literature) are offering their first courses, we hope you find their topics interesting and welcome them on the team.

Finally, many thanks to all of you who came and visited MANCENT and the LAMB GUILD at the Manchester History Festival on March 3rd. This was the first time we had decided to take part and it proved a great opportunity for our lecturers and students to get together and discuss upcoming events, suggest topics and just get to know each other better. Many thanks to all of you who came and visited and we look forward to seeing you in the future at similar events.

We also used the Festival to launch the invitations for our upcoming 2nd MANCENT Conference: This year it will be organised by our literature lecturers and topically will deal with Charles Dickens - Then and Now. The conference will be held on September 22nd 2012 in Cross Street Chapel in Manchester. We have included a conference flyer on the web-page and look forward to hearing from you soon.

 

The 2012 Programme of the Lamb Guild is now available here.

Yours sincerely,

Birgitta Hoffmann

MANCENT, Course Director
