Our Short Courses
Whilst our Diplomas are aimed at professionals with long-term career development goals, our short course programme is aimed at offering accessible skills-training to a wider audience. We run classroom-based and online professional development courses for those already working in the landscape professions and who especially want to develop their skills in design. Courses are delivered online and at various venues across the UK including the Royal Botanic Gardens Kew and at RHS Garden Wisley in partnership with the Royal Horticultural Society.
