Get hands-on and creative as you learn the art of floristry

From creating floral arrangements that’ll impress, to seasonal wreaths and table arrangements there are plenty of ways you can get hands on and creative in one of our Floristry courses.

Grow your floristry career

Turn your creativity into a rewarding career with our professionally accredited Floristry courses. We offer City & Guilds qualifications, recognised across the industry and valued by employers. With guidance from experienced tutors who bring industry knowledge into the classroom, you’ll build confidence, refine your style and develop a professional portfolio to showcase your work.

Courses for both recreational and professional learning

If you’ve got a passion for flowers and being creative, our Floristry courses can help you discover a new relaxing hobby or even inspire you to take up a new career as a florist.

Through hands-on learning, our courses will teach you how to perfect your floral arrangements and create showpieces for all occasions; you can learn to make buttonholes and corsages for weddings, create table arrangements, and wreaths that will impress.

You can also gain an understanding of sustainability, plant care, conditioning, customer service and the business skills required to run a successful floristry enterprise.
