Courses
Our home study courses offer you the flexibility to complete your assignments when it is convenient for you. You can work at your own pace and spend as much or as little time on an assignment as you need.
Our Classroom-based courses cover the same material as home study, either every other Saturday or one evening a week. It’s up to you. Whatever option you choose you’ll receive the guidance and support of our expert tutors.

I would definitely recommend the Academy. Because you’ve so much contact with the tutors and it’s such a structured course, I didn’t find it difficult to stay motivated… and I was able to fit it around all my other commitments.

I feel now I’m really hungry for knowledge and I want to know more about garden design. If someone asks me about a garden, I feel confident I can tell people exactly what they need to know… and maybe educate them.

I would highly recommend the course. I found the course a great way to get a solid foundation in garden design and to give me direction in terms of getting my own business off the ground. Importantly, it enabled me to execute real life projects.

I have to say the garden design course has really, really opened my eyes to the concept of how to plan, which had never even crossed my mind before I started the course. I'm absolutely loving it!
