I've just taken the plunge and enrolled on the RHS Advanced Certificate, so excited. I'm doing it by distance learning so looking forward to when the first course pack arrives  :)  I'd be interested to know if anyone else is doing this course, especially since I won't have any classmates as such!

hi sweet-pea.
I did the general certificate a couple of years ago (evening classes) and LOVED every second. would love to take it further so please let me know how it goes and how you find distance learning – enjoy it and good luck ;D

sweet-pea:
Thanks Norfolklass.

I did the General certificate about 3 years ago as an evening class, I enjoyed it but we didn't get to do much practical work, it was all theory.  I'm going to have to be very focused I think with this one and try and do some practical work myself. I've also noticed that there are some colleges who offer the course that also offer practical workshops that you can attend even if you're not doing the course at the college, so I'm thinking of doing one of those just to make sure that I'm doing everything right as I believe the examination has a practical element to it this time.

I have recently packed in a PhD, it took a long time, and in the end I just wasn't that interested in whatI studying any more --- climate change!!
I am now considering doing a course but I am not sure what, I want something that I am interested in, but a change form what I have spent the last 4 years doing, I have thought about the RHS ones, or something like beekeeping (I don't know anything about bees, but it sounds interesting!!) or maybe doing a MSC in Environmental Architecture and learning about how to build eco houses!!
I might have a look at theRHS site now and see what they offer.

sweet-pea:
The first 3 modules have just arrived with 2 great text books. Haven't had time to look through them properly yet, but the assignments remind me of my Biology degree exams!  I'm pretty sure they won't need the same amount of detail though, but there is no indication of what kind of answers they are expecting so think that's going to be my first question for my tutor.
