Florists

Certificate courses in floristry provide graduates with the skills and knowledge to pursue a career in the floristry or retail industry. These courses are for those individuals who do not wish to undertake an apprenticeship but still want accreditation as a florist. The courses cover the theory and practical elements required to successfully work in the floristry industry.

Courses which are accredited meet the national standards as set down by the National Training Framework (NTF), the Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF) and National quality assurance requirements such as the Australian Quality Training Framework (AQTF). The courses are recognised throughout Australia and once you have finished your studies, by completing the relevant core and elective subjects, your efforts are recognised by achieving a qualification and receiving a formal parchment. Assessment is often conducted in real or simulated work places which measure your ability to perform competently in job focused outcomes.
