Train Your Team—Strengthen Your Business

Having this certificate makes me feel I am better prepared to do my job.

“As a person without formal training in horticulture I learned a lot of things and can connect to my everyday job. I would think about what I heard during the courses while I was working in the greenhouse. I definitely think taking this course will help me do my job better.”

“The Section Grower Certification is incredibly relevant, covering common challenges all growers face, such as pH, EC, disease, and pest management. These areas require constant attention to maintain optimal growing conditions, yet much of this knowledge is typically learned through hands-on experience rather than formal education.”

“I recommend this certification to anyone in the green industry – from greenhouse growers to garden center employees, and nursery growers. I think everyone would find the information in this certification to be helpful.”

"I highly recommend the Section Grower Certification to anyone in the industry. Every lecture was relevant and directly applicable to my work. There wasn’t a single course where I thought: ‘I won’t need this information.’ Everything covered was incredibly valuable and immediately useful in a greenhouse setting."

“This certification does a good job marrying book learning with hands on learning. As a supervisor, one of the benefits I see from putting a new hire through this certification is it provides clear explanation of how to do things, and I don’t have to take up the time of other growers with more experience while I explain things to a new team member.”

“This course has a ton of valuable information. The speakers are great. I am really impressed with the quality of the program.”

“Without a doubt I recommend others, at all levels, take this certification. It is a great refresher for those who have been in the industry, and a good baseline for those who are newer to the grower position. There is a lot of important information discussed in these courses.”

“This is a great step for the industry. More like a leap.”
