British Academy of Garden Design Reviews 

Great course. Course content very thorough, plenty of material to help complete your tasks. Lots of support from your tutor who is always available to answer any questions, and give constructive feedback to help you improve.

I’ve just received my final feedback and I’ll be sad to finish this course! Such a journey! And I cannot believe how much I’ve learned! The student services are soooo helpful all the time, the tutors offer great advice whenever needed and brilliant feedback in order to improve your assignment. My tutor Ines has been on hand whenever needed, whether it be for assignment help or advice on taking on clients, even though I was doing the home study I never felt like I couldn’t ask for help! There are so many courses out there but this one for me had the most to offer especially with a placement at the end of your course which I am excited to get stuck into! Thank you all at BAGD for everything!

I'm doing the post grad diploma in Garden design online. All course content and info is clear and easy to follow. The tutors are very helpful and respond to questions promptly.

The in person course tutor was amazing, so inspiring, helpful and made each and every lesson so much fun. The online course tutors are also very helpful, encouraging and really try their best to help you stay on track. It's hard studying alone once the course is over and you have to be disciplined. Time slips by and the 3 years goes so quickly, but the online course tutor has helped me, I am now over halfway through the course and set to finish on time if I keep this regime up.

I m very glad I did choose the British Academy for my garden design course. Tutors are doing their best and I always got the right direction and help from them.

I highly recommend the Postgraduate Diploma Course in Garden Design to anyone looking to deepen their knowledge and skills in garden design. The course is well-structured and comprehensive, covering various aspects of garden design. Throughout the course, I was impressed by the depth of content and the quality of instruction. I particularly enjoyed the design projects. The positive communication with the Tutors and the significant support provided by the Student Services exceeded all my expectations.

I’m currently studying with the British Academy of Garden Design and really enjoying the experience. The course content is relevant and challenging to people working in the industry.
My tutor Ines Luis is always available for help and advice and goes above and beyond with her feedback on assignments to help me improve where needed.

It is early days in the dimploma garden design course though content to date and feedback on assignment has been relatively thourough and helpful.

A fantastic and enjoyable course that also delivers great student care. Highly recommended.

The British Academy of Garden Design's diploma in garden design was faultless. Unbelievable value for money with top lecturers like Greg Leeson, who is a never ending fountain of knowledge and experience, and tutors who have been fantastic throughout providing prompt and astute feedback to maximise the learning outcomes and applications, ensuring top grades and future success.

I started my Garden design post-grad diploma (online) a few months ago and had a great experience so far. My tutor is very helpful and guides me through invaluable feedback so that I can improve my skills to become a garden designer. The course content is very comprehensive and organised in a way that guides online learners effectively. I like the flexibility of the assessment submission as you can do the course while in another full-time job. I am really happy that I chose to learn with the British Academy of Garden Design.

The British Academy of Garden Design provided me with an opportunity to study remotely and at my own speed which at the time as on maternity leave worked well. You do need to be interested and self motivated but hence the draw of the course. The modules were interesting and if you did require support or further guidance the tutors were available. I thoroughly enjoyed the course and will be looking to build on it's foundations and progress further within this field.

I am still quite early on in the course but so far all communication has been clear and informative. The staff have also been friendly and supportive when called upon. So far so good!

As a complete newcomer to garden design and a beginner to all things relating to gardening, I signed up to this course to help me create a design for my own garden. I have found the online foundation course challenging but immensely enjoyable, and satisfying too.
The course itself, which comprises of five assignments, is really good value for money as you are given so much information to work with and learn from, via your own online portal. Each assignment encourages you to explore gardens and garden design on so many different levels and for myself, this has greatly increased my knowledge and understanding of the subject, which in turn has helped me to form workable design ideas.
The online forum is also so useful, particularly when I've needed more clarity or handy tips about some of the tasks in the assignments as you can either contact the tutor directly for further direction, or look through previous student's queries and tutor replies on the same subject.
I would say, this course is a really solid foundation and introduction to garden design, and although you might learn more by engaging with other students and tutors in a classroom environment, the library of resources provided and the support of the network of tutors has been invaluable in helping me to successfully complete each assignment remotely.

I am loving my studies through the British Academy of Garden Design. Living in the United States I'm able to the take the Diploma Course in Garden Design remotely. I was assigned a tutor who is very responsive, personable and great at answering my questions. Each module is dense with information on design elements, drawing/drafting, history and plant materials, and encourages you to research and really dive deep into topics. I am learning so much and so glad I decided to take this course.

I wish the forums were a bit more active to give a sense of community and camaraderie, but that's the nature of the beast, as I have neither time nor funds for Zoom or in-person classes. Other than that, I was not expecting this experience to be such a thorough exploration of horticulture and gardening. I'm learning a lot and really enjoying myself. I hope it continues.

Ten out of Ten.
I have just completed the Postgraduate Diploma course. Excellent support from the tutors and student services team kept me motivated throughout my journey. I am now fully equipped to enter the professional world of garden design.

Feeling super proud of myself for completing this course around my full time job, child and general life. It did take me the 3 years to do but it was great to have a focus and escape whilst working on each assignment. The course is so informative and I know so much more about not only the design but gardening in general, the science behind things and even how to start a business! I can't wait to take the first step into my new career, thank you to the academy xx

This online course is a joy to pursue. Full of inspiring and challenging tasks, with each unit giving a perfect blend of history, theory and practice. Great to learn how to bring a range of client and design ideas together. The course gives you everything you need to set yourself up in business as a garden designer. Helpful tutors, detailed guidelines for each assignment with excellent feedback on how to progress and improve. Encyclopaedic information in the library and endless drawing options to explore the subject in depth.

The course was very good, full of information and techniques, giving a well rounded education in garden design.
Whilst giving an understanding of design principles, the course also focused on the skills required to establish, market and build a business.
The staff were helpful throughout helping students to achieve the most out of the course. This was helpful with the online course.
