What you will learn
-
Among other things, you’ll learn to create and design floral works for various occasions and purposes, based on customer requests. You’ll learn about the names, properties, and care of cut flowers and potted plants. You’ll also learn to work with professional quality, taking environmental, economic, and safety considerations into account. With the help of knowledge about color, shape, and composition, you’ll practically plan and execute floral works such as bouquets, decorations, and arrangements.
-
The education provides knowledge about the florist’s development opportunities both nationally and internationally as well as the industry exams within the floral craft. The training also emphasizes the ability to communicate in sales situations and to work both independently and in groups. A creative, service-oriented craft requires good initiative and an understanding of changing needs, which is why the education includes knowledge about entrepreneurship and business.
- Parts of the training take place at one or more workplaces for at least 15 weeks (Internship/APL).
