The course has been designed specifically for students who want to gain a recognised vocational qualification in order
to follow a career in the garden design industry.
Based on five fully illustrated modules, all written in a very user-friendly style, the KLC Open Learning Diploma Course
covers every aspect of garden design.
The course also comes complete with a ring binder filled with the glossary, study notes and project work.
The course has self-assessed test papers and exercises scattered through the text bringing the subject alive.
Practical case studies are provided throughout many of the tutorials, so that students can see how the lessons are applied
to real-life situations.
The course has also been broken down into manageable sized sections, so that in gradual stages students will learn to
master this fascinating subject.
Presentation is one of the most important aspects of this course, and you will learn how to communicate your ideas on
paper with professional-looking planting plans, site survey plans, elevations and sections to illustrate your ideas.
There is particular emphasis on business practice so that on completion of the course, students will have the know-how to
manage their own business and KLC will give advice on CVs, portfolio presentation and career direction
Average time taken to complete the course is 18-24 months, allowing 12-15 hours a week - although there is no time
limit.

"At KLC, we strongly believe that KLC is the leading school for interior design and garden design training – whether you are
studying here at our studios at Chelsea Harbour or taking an open learning course; whether you want to make a career change or study for your
own pleasure.
"A friendly and professional approach is fundamental to everything that we do to provide "excellence by design".
Furthermore, we are the only design school to be accredited by both the British Accreditation Council (BAC) and the Open
& Distance Learning Quality Council (ODLQC).
When you enrol on a KLC Open Learning Course, you become a part of the college.
This is why we refer to our courses as “Open Learning” rather that “Distance Learning” – students are not left studying at
home in isolation, but are automatically welcomed into the KLC Association bringing with it a unique system of support
services.
