Hello Jane,
ReplyDeleteI am fascinated by Egypt from my childhood and to become an archeologist or scholar in the field was one omy dearest childhood dreams.
However my life took another course and I have ended in much differrent professions - computers. However the love for Egypt remained with me for years until I have visit it last year, which was really a life experience.
This e-learning course is what I have been looking for. Could you please send me some details about possible syllabus and where could I apply?

So glad you are interested, funnily enough I ended up in computers as well but Egyptology was my hobby since age 9.
