Welcome to the online Permaculture Design Course with Social Landscapes.
We’re excited to be on this journey with you.
This online platform is there to support your learning and help you get the most out of the course - the more you engage in what we are offering here, the learning materials, the assignments and also the community using it, the more you’ll get out of your PDC.
What you will find on this page is:
Links to the different modules of the course - these are filled with learning resources
More information on what it will take for you to complete the course
A form to pay further instalments for the course

Requirements for the successful completion of the course
To receive your Permaculture Design Course certificate you need to demonstrate that you have engaged in the course content and understood what permaculture is and how to apply it. You will do this through:
Engaging in the live online sessions and interacting with participants
Catching up on missed sessions through this online learning platform
Completing the additional assignments that come with each module (approx. 1 hour for the 1st module, 2 hours each for module 2 - 6 and 7 hours for module 7, which ideally is done over the duration of the course)
Engaging in the online discussions
Completing the quizzes at the end of each module in good time
Documenting a couple of practical projects (approx. 3 hours each) that help you create a lifestyle more in line with permaculture (e.g. making a garden bed, installing a compost system or bringing together your community - examples will come with each module)
Presenting your final design to the group of participants and tutors; here some examples of designs:
Paying your instalments
If you have paid the total amount for the course right at the beginning, you can ignore this section. If you have started off with paying a £100 deposit, then this is for you.
Please make sure that you have paid a minimum of £200 before the start of the course; a minimum of £400 (or the total amount if you pay less than that on Module 1 exclusion prices or concessions) by December and the full amount by end of January.
Make your instalments for the online PDC here and keep a note of your total amount paid. We will also keep track of it.
