Every week a new palaeography poser is added to the Scottish Handwriting site, normally on Thursdays. This tests your reading and comprehension skills and also offers a regular, short practise session.

Scottish Handwriting Evening Class
The University of Edinburgh's Office of Lifelong Learning offer a practical course in Scottish handwriting covering the period 1500-1700. This is taught by archivists from The National Records of Scotland at General Register House in the centre of Edinburgh. The course runs for 10 weeks from the end of September for the first term and for a further 10 weeks starting in January. More information about the course and how to subscribe is available in the Open Studies brochure on the Office of Lifelong Learning website: http://www.lifelong.ed.ac.uk
