Multiple Refreshers Courses

NGC Courses, Refreshers, and Symposiums are open to everyone. New students may take Environmental (ES), Gardening (GS), and Landscape Design (LDS) Courses for credit toward becoming certified Consultants. ES, GS, and LDS Consultants maintain accreditation by attending a course in their specialty. They must complete a refresher every 5 years and may earn one Refresher Credit per calendar year.

Flower Show School Courses teach how floral designs and horticulture are judged and can lead to becoming a Flower Show Judge. Flower Show Judges must attend a Flower Show School Symposium every 3 years and maintain exhibiting and judging credits.

Master Gardener Volunteers often participate for continuing education, and all learners are welcome to join for the joy of learning.
