Education Information
Correspondence Courses
Further study for the BBKA examinations can be very satisfying but for some people attending day or evening classes is not convenient. Correspondence courses are a form of distance learning enabling you to study beekeeping while working at your own pace. An arrangement will be made with a qualified tutor for you to send your written answers to set questions that are designed to take you through the syllabus.
These courses cover the Basic Certificate (12 question papers) as well as the eight modules (5 question papers each) that form the route to the Intermediate Theory Certificate and then on to the Senior Theory Certificate.
The fee for each module is £40.00. You may also need to buy or borrow a few books, which may be available in your beekeeping branch or county library.
See Examinations and Assessments for more information from the BBKA Examinations Board.
