Best to get your qualifications from a reputable TAFE or training provider if you want to be job ready.I completed the certificate III in Horticulture 2023. Classes were face to face, and once a week over 12 months, and it was cheap with the government subsidies offered at the time.Material was outdated, classroom was not suitable for holding prac assessments and our class basically ran itself as self directed learning. We, as students located a garden which was 15 minutes drive away from classroom, to utilise for our prac sessions.Initial trainer was fantastic. His replacement in term 2 was not, running most classes via watching YouTube videos which were remotely related to the theory component and assessments. SIA were slow to answer our request for equipment needed for the prac assessments. SIA were also slow to answer the 2nd trainer's request for assistance with teaching. The Hort course is also run paper based. We were submitting 90+ pages of workbook assessments and required to make copies before submitting in case SIA "lost the copy submitted ".The Horticulture course is good for getting the certificate, not for learning and being job ready.
