From May 2017 onwards, the EOS Training Academy’s programme will extend its reach to include Canon UK’s head office in Reigate, Surrey. Here Canon users will be able to take part in selected EOS camera and Speedlite workshops as well as visit the EOS epicentre that is Canon’s headquarters.

The workshops on offer in Reigate include the popular camera-specific Optimise courses for the EOS 5D Mark IV, 5DS/R, 5D Mark III, 7D Mark II and 80D, Making the Most series for beginner and enthusiast models and Speedlite for Beginners for those wanting to learn more about flash photography.

The additional workshop venue at Reigate is part of a planned expansion of the academy programme, which now offers three venue locations for Canon users to learn more about their EOS. The other two are also based in the south of the UK in Oxford and Central London (near Euston). There will also be additional locations for Practical Days, including the Wildfowl & Wetlands Trust (WWT) venues at Slimbridge and Barnes in London, Waterperry Gardens in Oxford, plus the stunning city of York.

A full-day workshop starts from only £99 and includes a comprehensive handout, plus tailored advice and support throughout the day from your tutor. Maximum group size is 12 and sessions are informal, with opportunities for questions throughout the day.
