The Landscaping Operations program prepares students to start a new career in the landscaping field. Landscapers work on gardens and maintain and beautify residential and commercial grounds. Our program will prepare you to build unique wooden structures such as benches, arbours, and pergolas. Learn how to build stone walls, water/rock gardens, and install concrete features such as walkways and patios. Our curriculum also includes modules on living materials such as flowers, trees and shrubs, landscape planning, understanding job specifications, and using landscaping tools and machinery. Students often work in teams to enhance the creative, hands-on learning process and the program is complemented by a field placement in a professional landscaping setting. A nature’s lover dream, this program will prepare you for a career in the great outdoors.
A diploma could lead to careers in general landscaping; lighting; irrigation; stone, paver, and brick work; exterior wood construction; or as a horticulture, plant, and garden specialist. |
