COURSE INFORMATION AND FEES:

Foundation Courses (FC):

Series of 4 self-paced, online courses covering the theory and application methodology behind the Soil Food Web Approach. This comprises 63 lectures totalling more than 40 hours of lectures.
Includes access to the FC Forum where students can interact with each other, and with the Faculty. Access to the FC Forum is for 12 months from when a student begins the FC. After 12 months, FC Forum access is changed to read only and will remain in place for as long as we maintain the Forum.
Printable/downloadable materials: Lecture slides, course manual, glossary.

How Much Time You’ll Need to Commit:

Students typically require about 150 hours in order to complete the FC at a reasonable pace.

We expect that a student can complete the FC in 4 weeks, if studying full-time. The maximum time allowed to complete the FC is 12 months.

On successful completion of the FC with an overall average of 90% or more, you qualify to enroll in one of the Advanced Programs e.g. the Consultant Training Program (CTP), the Grower Training Program (GTP) and the Certified Lab-Tech Program (CLP), additional fees apply. You will have 4 months from the date you complete the FC to enroll in one of the Advanced Programs, after which you will no longer be eligible for enrollment in any of the Advanced Programs.
