FlowerSchool Skills Programs
FlowerSchool Skills programs teach students professional floristry skills. They are meant to be taken in a 2-Day, 3-Day or 5-Day Series and are for individuals looking to create professional grade arrangements and bouquets. These classes can often be challenging and inspiring as they are simulated to be 'real life' floristry. They are perfect for anyone wishing to become a designer.
These programs build upon one another and should be taken in order.
