Creative Development Course
A unique residential course, taught by Fellows, to help you achieve your calligraphic potential.
The three-year, part-time course provides a structure of tuition, support and guidance for calligraphers who want to develop their work in a more personal direction. Instead of a teaching course, it’s a programme which gives time and encouragement to students to find their own way ahead.
We will be inviting applications for the 2026 CDC intake in early 2025

Italic Hand Correspondence Course
The Italic hand is one of the most important in the calligrapher’s repertoire due to its formal elegance and its capacity for variation.
The SSI is pleased to offer a new downloadable course of eight lessons on the Italic hand that is suitable for the complete beginner or for those who simply want to improve their skills. For each lesson, there is a short video, demonstrating clearly how the forms are made; an invaluable aid to learning to write well.
