This one year Online Permaculture Design Masterclass will be delivered through a series online interactive meetings (see full schedule below), practical workshops from home and several design exercises. ​

All classes are recorded and no online presence is required apart from presentation of the final designs!! Students can follow the course at their own pace and according to their own time zone.

Upon completion, students will be awarded the following certificates:​

- 72 hours Permaculture Design Course Certificate
- 16 hours Natural Building Certificate
- 24 hours Regenerative Soil management Certificate
- 16 hours Agroforestry Certificate
- 16 hours Herbalism and Natural Medicine Certificate
- 16 hours Social Permaculture Certificate
- 16 hours Personal Permaculture Certificate

This workshop is free thanks to a grant from the National Forest.

What can the natural world teach us in a time of uncertainty and change?

Overview:

We associate woodlands, forests and other natural ecosystems with growth, connection, adaptation and resilience. However, often we struggle to experience these in our own lives – on a personal level, in our societies and with regard to our uncertain and changing world.

In this interactive workshop we will explore principles derived from nature, how we can learn from them in a real, practical way and use them in our current circumstances

This workshop is relevant for all types of challenges:

Personal health, both physical and mental
Changing circumstances
Covid-related issues
Worries about the state of the world
Concerns about the future
Burnout

We will also explore how we can use nature’s wisdom to be part of the solution to the world’s problems, preventing us from becoming paralysed in the face of uncertainty.

Are you struggling to find your niche? The Think Like a Tree design process evolved from the Design Web and is inspired by the wisdom of trees. You can use this approach to live your life with purpose, designing your own health and happiness using the wisdom of 42 natural principles drawn by observing trees.
Led by Sarah Spencer, the author of Think Like a Tree and co-facilitated by Milly Carmichael and Samantha Woods - all Diploma holders and Permaculture teachers who have used this process to design their own ways to resilience and well-being.
The course will be an adapted version of the Think like a Tree programme taking place via Zoom and with home study and outdoor sessions ‘off-line’. There will be breaks during sessions with tasks, so it won’t just be sitting at a computer.
The group size will remain small so you will gain from learning from others, and you’ll have access to a group to interact between sessions.

REGENERATIVE MATERIALS & BIOTECTURE DESIGN is the knowledge and skills required for the design and building of various structures by using the most accessible, affordable, ecological, local and healthy biodegradable materials.

How does the course work?

The course is a blended course including virtual synchronous sessions, team collaborations and discussions and life-term access to self-paced asynchronous study materials and sessions.

REGENERATIVE NEIGHBORHOODS & DE-URBAN DESIGN is a brand new design discipline that emphasises on the effects of the recent massive urbanisation in transforming our world from microbic scale to the global one. De-Urban Design re-imagines progressive changes in human settlements on neighbourhood and urban scale and envision future cities and neighbourhoods as ethical, equitable, and ecocentric living habitats.

REGENERATIVE LANDSCAPES & PERMACULTURE DESIGN Permaculture design is the ethical design of human settlements and productive landscapes that have the diversity, resilience and flexibility of natural ecosystems and which can provide all tangible and intangible human needs in a regenerative and sustainable way and in harmony with nature. Based on observation of nature and holistic design, this course provides principles and methodologies of Permaculture design that can be applied in any climatic region of the world.
