Our Horticulture Program is also available as a self-guided online course. The comprehensive course delivers the same learning objectives as the live semester except for the outdoor section. The program is available for review at your own pace. Enrollment provides you access to the course for a year from the start of the program, but you can complete it in just a few months if you devote yourself to it. The knowledge review sections and exams ensure that you understand the content and qualify you to receive a certificate of completion. You will retain access to the program for the full year even after you have submitted it for certification.
Since the online program does not have live instructors, you can review the content and research any subject to ensure comprehension before moving on. You are also given exercises and examples that you can follow using your own equipment. And if you come across any questions about the content that still needs to be addressed, you can always email us at support@oaksterdamuniversity.com, and we'll be very happy to provide support as necessary.

Do I miss out on anything by doing the online classes instead of being on campus?
Raymond,
To best replicate the on-campus experience we offer the Live Virtual Classroom programs. While we cannot replicate hands-on learning, our instructors walk through the demonstration and labs on camera which gives you a front-seat view to all the details while still letting you ask questions. We also encourage you to follow along with your own plants and equipment. One advantage of the virtual classroom is that you can actually show the instructors your own setup and plants to get feedback on your progress, something you cannot do on campus.
All major academic institutions in the country are switching to virtual classrooms, and we will continue to do so until the pandemic is under control. Until then, we offer the most comprehensive and interactive learning experience available in the industry.
Remember you always can email support@oaksterdamuniversity.com if you have any further questions.
Hi, i'm an italian student and i would like to know if can i do lessons being on campus instead of the online classes. For me the best way to learn is by touching things with my hands, in presence, not through a screen. Best regards.
