Courses

Horticulture is a large, modern and diverse multi-billion pound industry offering many exciting opportunities for individuals to forge worthwhile and rewarding careers. The industry can be divided into three main themes: Amenity or Landscape Horticulture, Production Horticulture, and Retail Horticulture. SAC's courses provide a balance between competence in horticultural skills and practices and a knowledge and understanding of the underlying science and technology.

Garden Design is a discipline that requires attention to detail, plant knowledge, technical competence, and artistic flair. It is recognised as a profession in its own right and its influence on our lives has spread from our small private gardens into the wider landscapes and grander designs of more public places. The courses offered by SAC approach Garden Design very firmly from the perspective of developing a strong appreciation, understanding and knowledge of horticulture.
