Overview

Diploma - Landscape Technician

Humber’s Landscape Technician diploma program is based on the principles of sustainability, conservation and environmental sensitivity. 

You’ll learn about landscape design and development, site construction, general horticulture, grounds maintenance, and related technologies through a combination of in-class studies and hands-on landscape training.

Humber has exceptional facilities for landscape education. 

The Humber Arboretum, for example, is a 250-acre botanical garden centred on the west branch of the Humber River, surrounding Humber’s North Campus. 

It includes ornamental, woodland and wildlife gardens serving as a unique living classroom for plant studies, construction, arboricultural and horticultural skills. 

The construction lab is housed in a weather-protected 8,000-square-foot facility which allows you to potentially build full-scale structures such as decks, gazebos and retaining walls. 

The computer labs use the latest in computer-aided design (CAD) software which enables you to prepare professional construction documents.
