HortiTech biedt trainingsprogramma's gebaseerd op zowel theoretische kennis als praktische ervaring, de sleutel tot succesvolle trainingsprogramma's.
Afhankelijk van het soort training dat je nodig hebt, kunnen we een programma op maat voor je maken. Dit kan variëren van twee weken theoretische training tot drie maanden gecombineerde theoretische en praktische training.
The theoretical part contains elements of horticultural technology, cultivation methods and business management. We have developed a complete overview of all relevant theoretical topics from you can make your selection. The wide selection of topics allows you to train for various different processes in your greenhouse. The practical side of our training programs will train you to apply your theoretical knowledge to practical situations. Understanding the theory behind the process is the first step, applying it to the process to control it is the next one.
Practical experience is gained by letting the trainees do an internship at Dutch growers. The selection of a Dutch grower is based on the preference and the needs of the trainees. The trainees will learn why certain activities take place in the greenhouse.
When certain theoretical subjects are being discussed during theory part, those subjects will be used during the practical days as well. That way, trainees learn theory and afterwards see that theory in practice.
This overview shows the subjects per category. Each training program consists of several subjects, determined by the client. Each topic can be trained up to a certain level that determines the length of the training. Based on the selected topics and the level you want, a tailor made program can be made. These theoretical training subjects can be combined with practical training modules, so the theoretical knowledge can be applied in practice.
HortiTech offers online training programs, fit for individual trainees. Together with trainees from all over the world, a training is set up online which can be completed in 2 to 3 months. The initial training program consists of basic cultivation topics, which will give a solid foundation on which to base further knowledge gathering. The program contents for the first cultivation program can be found below.
The training program consists of the following:
An ideal group size is around 7. This size enables discussion without losing focus of the topics. Multiple groups can be set up to accommodate multiple entries.
The training package will start in the first week of October, 2020. The exact dates of each session will be communicated later on. Additional groups will have varying starting dates.
The duration of the training will be 11 weeks, with one session per week.
The fee for the 1st ‘open training group’ package is set at €750,00 excluding taxes (if applicable) per trainee. This comes down less than €70,00 per session per trainee.

To complement our personal training services, we have started building online E-learning modules. The topics off these modules are focussed around the main key elements of a greenhouse and are divided among the following chapters:
The Horticulture Intro is a free introduction course to familiarise yourself with the horticulture sector. Each chapter of this module will explain the basics of the subject, and is a great way to get started. In the dedicated modules more in depth knowledge, examples, tips and tricks are given.
