Distance Learning Courses
There is a dedicated online classroom for each unit you study. It includes:-
- Course materials that you can download, arranged by learning outcome
- Online presentations, quizzes and web links to useful items
- Direct email contact to your tutor
- A discussion forum where you can contact other students on your course
- Past RHS examination questions for practice

Blended Learning Courses
Blended Learning is a combination of distance learning, practical teaching and assessment. The practical aspects are taught online, with formal assessments at our Ryton Centre in line with the awarding body requirements.
It is an excellent way of gaining a valuable qualification, studying when it suits you. However it is not suitable for complete beginners or for anyone who does not have access to a garden or allotment - it is most suitable for experienced home gardeners, or anyone in the industry looking to validate their knowledge with a qualification.
