Hi all,

I'm curious as to opinions and reviews of anyone who has studied at the IHGS in the last few years?

Hi Antony,
I'm giving it some serious consideration yes. Have you studied their courses yourself?

 No, i studied with Strathclyde, but I know a number of IHGS tutors and many are experts in their fields.

Depending on your plans and the level you want to study at I would also look at courses from Pharos Tutors and the University of Strathclyde.
