“‘My dad and grandad both<br />
pursued a career in Horticulture<br />
so naturally, I have followed<br />
in their footsteps. <strong>Shipley</strong><br />
<strong>College</strong> was local for me and is<br />
where my family have studied.<br />
I really enjoy understanding<br />
how to use the different types<br />
of machinery on the course.<br />
After the course, I would like<br />
to progress to the Horticulture<br />
Level 3 course, and eventually<br />
work abroad.’<br />

and working outdoors. The<br />
Horticulture course is a great<br />
way to help me achieve this.<br />
I chose <strong>Shipley</strong> <strong>College</strong> because<br />
my friends and family have<br />
been here and recommended<br />
it. After my course, I am<br />
interested in advancing on to<br />
