In 2020 and 2021, Solomon launched a series of Modules, each designed specifically for Entered Apprentices, Fellow Crafts and Master Masons.

Each module is filled with content specifically focused on your journey through these degrees, featuring the variety and quality of content Solomon is well known for, including quizzes and papers focused on the tracing boards and working tools unique to those degrees allowing brethren to delve deeper into them.

‘Welcome Companion’ brings the same focus to the Royal Arch with additional videos, quizzes and nuggets for new companions, explaining the regalia, history of the Royal Arch and more.

Each section begins with an introductory video, which presents some of the material and 
members can also continue to earn digital ‘badges’, which mark their progression through the modules and following the successful completion of various quizzes and viewing the content within each section.

Our content is not just for the individual brother or companion, there is also a wide variety of material that Lodges and Chapters can utilise during meetings. This allows members to keep learning and engaging alongside their brethren and companions, including delivering a paper, nugget or presentation within a Lodge or Chapter.

There is a wealth of content on Solomon which the Learning & Development Team, alongside our dedicated contributors from around the globe, continue to work tirelessly to expand and ensure that the resources available cover the broadest range of topics possible, from viewing the famous Prestonian Lectures narrated by the lecturers themselves, which are usually only delivered inside a Lodge room, to testing your knowledge with our interactive quizzes.

Whether it is from a nugget, paper, quiz or webinar, we want to give you the tools to learn when you want, in the ways you want, whether inside or outside the Lodge, directly from Solomon platform or through a Brother delivering presentation.

Thank you to over 39,000 of you who have registered nationaly - and keep registering - and made all the effort so worthwhile, and whose input, feedback and suggestions are helping us to make Solomon more valuable and relevant every day to all who use it, helping it evolve into what it is today.

Fostering Curiosity – Developing Understanding is not simply the central message of Solomon, it is the core value underpinning everything we do.
