  • Introductory and leisure courses are a good choice for gardeners who would like to learn more but don’t want to work towards formal qualifications.

How it Works

With online learning you can begin studying within hours!

Online learning means that we deliver the course material to your in-box and you can then save it to your computer or print it off for reading at your leisure. You do not need to be online to work through your course material.

Our courses allow you to study in your own time and at your own pace, from anywhere in the world. You have one-to-one access to an expert personal tutor throughout the course.
