Horticultural Practice
Du etablerar själv kontakt med lämplig praktikplats, som godkänns av kursledaren. Det kan vara ett producerande företag (odling), en visningsträdgård, ett rådgivningsföretag, ett leverantörsföretag eller ett företag som hanterar de färdiga produkterna. Under de nio veckorna av arbetsplatsförlagd praktik studerar du arbetsplatsens verksamhet och organisation samtidigt som du deltar i arbetet.
Hortikulturella praktikkursen utgör ett komplement till dina teoretiska studier, och leder inte sällan till att du får en ingång till arbetsmarknaden.

On completion of the course, students will:
be able to plan common tasks (estimate the time required and state the approximate timepoint) at the selected workplace
be able to explain how, and with what equipment, simple tasks should be carried out at the selected workplace

Content
Preparation for the practical work placement is done by the student by directly establishing contact with a possible workplace in Sweden or abroad. The course leader must approve the workplace. The course consists of practical work in an actual workplace for around nine (9) weeks where the student takes part in the work and gains a deeper knowledge of how the work is planned and carried out. During the work placement the student learns about the working environment, organisation, leadership, technical aids, customers and suppliers. The course also includes planning and organising a study visit to the work place for the contact person from SLU. A selection of the literature relating to the work placement business and an annual plan for the workplace must be reported orally and in writing.
Attendance at the work place and seminars are mandatory.
