Next series of Hornemann Institutes internet-based learning courses runs from 5 October - 29 November

Our next series of online courses runs from 5 October to 29 November 2026. Registration is open from 20 July to 20 September. As an alternative to the institute’s qualified certificate, we now also offer all courses as micro-credentials. A micro-credential is an academic course, offered by an accredited university that ensures participants to acquire additional qualifications.
