You will learn the essential floristry techniques and principles to create beautiful arrangements and bouquets. Equally importantly, you will also learn how to cost a job for profit, how to buy and order flowers, foliages and sundries, and how to condition your cut materials properly for maximum vase life. You will also have access to the full range of Level 2 hand-outs to support your learning, as well as to the private student facebook page of Academy alumni.

The Academy Level 2 course is divided into four principal units/modules, each designed to give you an in-depth knowledge of all practical floristry designs:

• Arrangement
  Weddings
  Hand-tied and gift-wrapping
  Funerals

You can choose to study one day per week, one weekend per month or a week at a time. You will be awarded a Certificate of Completion for each unit/module you study.
