ADL - Academy for Distance Learning

ADL’s educational philosophy is based on our commitment to ensuring Students Are Our Priority. The Hallmark of any good distance learning institution is the level of support supplied to students as they journey through their studies. At the heart of our service to you are our committed and exceptional tutors, most holding a 3 year degree, with 5 years industry experience and remaining active within the horticultural industry. This combination, together with frequent reviews and updating of courses, makes our horticultural programs a unique learning experience. Horticultural courses are a real specialty for us and because of this, the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) lists ADL as an approved distance learning provider on their website for the RHS qualifications. Moreover, the expertise of our tutors and support team, and quality of course content enables us to be one of the few distance learning providers, able to offer the RHS level 3 programs. In addition to these RHS qualifications, we also offer over 200 horticultural courses developed and written by our horticultural professionals. Subject areas include: Crops, General Horticulture, Herbs, Home Gardening, Hydroponics, Landscaping, Nursery and Propagation, Permaculture/Self Sufficiency, Plant Varieties, Trees and Turf. Our tutors provide unlimited support throughout your studies. For a change of career, advancement in employment, to set up in business, or to improve your own skills in horticulture for home use, ADL has a course to help you realise your ambition.
