This is a 72 hours certified course that covers all aspects of Permaculture as detailed by Bill Mollison (co-founder of the movement and author of "Permaculture: a designer's manual"). The course will touch all elements required to design a complete human settlement and will include topics such as food production, resource management, project management, soil, agroforestry, animal systems, appropriate technology, people systems and social Permaculture.

The course will include a final design project and the handover of the PDC certificate upon completion and presentation of the final design.

Limited places available so book now!

The 72hr curriculum is certified by the Permaculture Association of Britain.
We have adapted our course material to our location and relative interests. For example, we offer a rural focus with small holding, vegetable growing, regenerative agriculture, and food forests as some of the themes that are included.
You can expect guest speakers, field trips and hands on activities that are chosen to enhance your learning.

Throughout the course we work to build community, friendship and meaningful networks, along with ensuring that all participants are well fed, and cared for and to provide a relaxed, yet focused and inspiring experience within a safe space.

COURSE DETAILS
This first part of the course includes exploring the ethics that guide permaculture practitioners: caring for the earth, caring for people and sharing our planet’s resources. These ethics have a massive influence on choices we must make to regenerate the land and live abundantly.
We then examine the principles of ecology and permaculture design. These principles are the core of permaculture and will be reiterated throughout the course.
Afterwards we will study design frameworks and methods, and learners will have a chance to engage with these over a few design projects. Everyone will have the chance to present a design project by the end of the course.

Learn at one of the most established Permaculture projects in Europe—the off-the-grid Permaculture education center, Terra Alta. With 10 years as a permaculture site-in-development, a center for research and education, and with over 20 Permaculture Design Certificate Courses (PDCs) taught, Terra Alta, led by visionary Permaculture teacher Pedro Valdjiu, offers Permaculture education at the highest level. Alongside Permaculture, Terra Alta is committed to bioregionalism, evidenced by the involvement of local guest teachers and by the Waldorf school, "Escola da Terra", that Pedro Valdjiu and his life partner, educator Rita Seixas run which, together with Terra Alta form the nonprofit “Waldorf Association of Sintra”.

The two-week PDC is an internationally recognized intensive program that equips students with:
a comprehensive understanding of the concepts of Permaculture tools and know-how to design your own regenerative projects the basics for land design and whole-systems thinking tools to better navigate society as well as your own inner landscape.

The course is an introduction and stepping stone towards advanced land-design or teacher training programs. That being said, we support students’ continuing education through offering lifetime access to our knowledge base (read more about it below) and by providing recommendations for advanced programs you may want to take after the PDC. Formats vary from locale to locale, tailored to suit the local environment and expertise of the teaching team. Like other PDCs around the world, Terra Alta's PDC has at its core Bill Mollison's 72-hour curriculum. David Holmgren’s seven domains of permaculture action are also paramount in our permaculture teachings. Also in line with other PDCs, ours is designed to reflect the conditions of our locale—the beautiful bioregion of Sintra. Pedro is a certified teacher through the UK Permaculture Association.

Permaculture Kernow’s 11 module
Certificated Permaculture Design Course.
This course promises to be quite an adventure, as we delve deeply into the life changing world of permaculture.
Participants will have the opportunity to discover all facets of permaculture in live online sessions and also have hands-on experience in their own offline self-study practical sessions, as they design and implement in our own home gardens.

This course will guide you through the process of designing your own permaculture landscape and lifestyle.
On top of all of this, upon completing this course, you will get the internationally recognised Permaculture Design Certificate.

You can choose to do the whole 11 day course, or dip into the modules that you are most interested in.
N.B. If you do only want to attend certain individual modules, you need to have completed the first module: “An introduction to permaculture” before attending any other module sessions.
You will only receive the permaculture design certificate once you have attended all 11 modular sessions but you can take as long as you wish to obtain the accreditation.

Each module is a stand-alone course in its own right and can be received in any order you choose providing the introductory module 1 is completed first.
The 10th and 11th modules are only attended once all other modules are covered.
The live online sessions will be running every Monday and Tuesday evenings 6pm till 9pm from 18th January till the 30th of March.
