PLANT TAXONOMY ONLINE COURSE

Study Plant Taxonomy Online at your own pace with this 20 hour short course. Plant Taxonomy (ie. the scientific identification of plants) has been increasingly sidelined and neglected in horticulture, agriculture, botany and science courses. This is really something that EVERYONE who works with plants should study. "This course covers topics that my colleagues have complained about being neglected in many horticulture and agriculture courses for decades. These are topics that used to be studied in most certificates, diplomas and degrees but no longer. This is knowledge that could be lost to the industry if new entrants do not make an effort to learn it.", John Mason, Principal, ACS Distance Education. Knowing what we teach here will help you make a lot more sense of plant names. This short course is a great way to become proficient in understanding the essentials in plant taxonomy.
