What is a Permaculture Design Course? PDF Contents here
It is a standard, internationally recognized course presented as a 72-hour curriculum laid out by Bill Mollison in his book “Permaculture: A Designers’ Manual” and taught around the world as a way of introducing people to creating sustainable human settlements and putting humanity on a course to a more sane future.
To whom is directed?
To students, teachers, sustainability projects and businesses, farmers, landowners, ranchers, gardeners, landscapers, architect, horticulturalist, psychologist, sociologist, economist, food shop owners, parents & pretty much anyone who is wanting to create change in their personal lives and the lives around them.
What does it mean to be "CERTIFIED"?
This certification will open many doors for you around the world. The certification makes you into a Permaculture consultant & designer. Using that for your own land/project or to help others is your choice. You will be allowed to use the word Permaculture in your business and this certification will be recognized by organizations, institutes and other designers all over the world. It is a very good tool to have if you want to head towards a sustainable life or work future. We recommend gardeners, landscapers, farmers, ranchers, architects, land owners, teachers, sustainable business etc to bring at least one of their staff members to this course. You may want to have at least one other person in your team to hold this knowledge & skills.
