This is an 8 module online course, leading to the RHS Level 2 Principles of Horticulture Certificate. The most popular, well-known RHS certificate!
This is the most popular RHS qualification – an excellent foundation for a new career in gardening or horticulture, as well as a popular course among keen amateur gardeners. This is also a great qualification for self-employed gardeners and garden designers – it not only gives you all the knowledge you need to work professionally in this area, but the certificate is widely recognised by the general public.
The course includes full tutorial support from a personal tutor who you can contact at any time. Our online support team is also available up to 9pm each evening, 7 days a week, so you can access help at the time you need it.
A solid preparation for the exams, very useful. A lovely, encouraging tutor made all the difference during revision too, especially when I had a bit of a wobble. Very supportive!
