At Plumpton College, we offer many full-time and part-time courses, all designed to kickstart your dream career!
One of our most popular courses is our Level 2 Technical Certificate in Floristry, a great way to spring board into this creative industry.
You will learn about different flowers and plants and how to look after them. You will also learn that there is more to floristry than flowers, and that for Florists to be successful, they need to understand their tools, environment and the finishing touches that all make a difference.
Our students get the opportunity to be hands-on and gain real industry experience by attending and working at multiple events throughout the year:
Just to name but a few!
Our students on the Level 2 Technical Certificate in Floristry also have the opportunity to take compulsory industry work experience in a florists of their choice. The work experience programme will give you the chance to gain valuable skills in a real working environment whilst being paired with your ideal employer.
