RHS Theory Courses

Courses leading to the RHS Level 2 theory Certificate run at our Centres at Ryton Gardens, near Coventry and Bampton near Faringdon, Oxon. 

At Level 2 there is a new new single RHS theory Certificate in the Principles of Plant Growth and Development; with the RHS Level 2 Practical Certificate this makes up a combined RHS Level 2 Certificate in the Principles and Practices of Horticulture. 

For Level 3 there is a single RHS theory Certificate in Plant Growth, Garden Planning and Applied Propagation. With a new Level 3 Practical Certificate and an Award in Horticultural Investigation ( being released to centres in 2026 -7) this will make up an RHS Level 3 Diploma
