The British Epigraphy Society organises a short workshop each year on the practical skills needed for studying epigraphic documents at first hand. A knowledge of these skills is essential for those who plan to work in the field or in museum collections, but is equally indispensable for those consulting published editions of inscriptions for research purposes. A key component of the course is hands-on experience in making drawings, photographs, and squeezes of real inscriptions, and fostering an appreciation for finer points of detail which can only be observed at first hand. The workshop usually takes place across three days in late June, and is hosted by a different institution each year. The course is aimed primarily at graduate students but we welcome applications from postdoctoral academics and other interested parties. For details of our next workshop please follow the link at the bottom of this page to "Future Workshops".

Organising Committee: Dr Peter Haarer (Chair), Dr Charles Crowther, Dr Charlotte Tupman.
