Horticulture Courses

Horticulture courses offer students a chance to further their passion for plant life and learn how to apply their landscaping expertise professionally. Courses in this sector are formulated to equip you with the practical skills and background knowledge you need to boost, protect and cultivate flora as part of any environmental organisation.

A horticulture course can lead to a number of job opportunities, from maintaining lush, green gardens to managing public parks and spaces. Qualifications in horticulture can lead to a job as a nursery worker, landscape gardener, greenkeeper or floriculturist. The average weekly salary for a nursery worker is $1,000.

Whether you’re just starting out in your horticulture career, want to gain more qualifications, add to your previous experience, or simply broaden your horizons, TAFE NSW offers a wide variety of courses at a number of levels to suit you.
