The Essex Contract Bridge Association does not endorse any particular courses or teachers, but as a service to potential students, it provides links to bridge courses and learning opportunities in Essex that it is aware of, concentrating on those due to start in September 2007.

Note to Students: If you wish to find further details about any of the courses, please follow the contact details shown rather than responding to the ECBA

Note to Teachers: If you wish to see your Essex-based courses included within the scope of 'category 3' below, please send details to the Teachers' Liaison Officer

There are three categories of opportunities for learning Bridge in Essex:

CATEGORY 1: ADULT EDUCATION COLLEGES, offered through colleges managed by Essex County Council.  Click on the hyperlinks below for full details. 

Note L1= Beginners, L2 = Improvers, L3 = Advanced

CATEGORY 2: 'BRIDGE FOR ALL' SCHEME.  'Bridge for All' is a standard teaching scheme that has been developed over a number of years by the English Bridge Union and it is offered by teachers who have themselves completed the EBU training programme.  There is overlap between opportunities in this category with those shown in categories 1 and 3.
