They learn about climate control, soil management, and sustainable agricultural practices, providing them with the skills to successfully manage a commercial or educational greenhouse.
Floral Design: This area gives students the chance to tap into their creativity. Courses cover everything from basic arrangements to intricate designs, offering ample opportunities to master the art and science of floriculture.
Agriculture Biology & Aquaculture: A rigorous curriculum introduces students to the biological aspects of agriculture, including plant genetics, disease control, and animal husbandry. Additionally, students have the option to delve into aquaculture, exploring the breeding and harvesting of aquatic organisms.
Welding: Students are taught safe and efficient welding techniques that are applicable in various agricultural settings, from equipment repair to construction.
Employment Skills: Soft skills such as communication, leadership, and problem-solving are integrated throughout the program, ensuring that students are well-prepared for the workplace.
