Upcoming course dates 2025/26

The Level 3 Forest School Leaders course

Taught over 12 days split into 3 main blocks of 2 days 5 days and 5 days. It is essential that prospective students consider their availability when booking onto a course as attendance on all days is mandatory and essential to cover all the course content and gain the qualification.

The level 2 Forest School Assistants course

Taught over 6 days (1 day plus 5 days) - again attendance on all the days is a requirement to achieve the full qualification.

NB - the first 5 days of the level 3 course covers the same units and elements as the full level 2 qualification. The benefits of this are that students across the different level qualifications are able to train alongside each other and also it provides an easy route for L2 students to top up/transfer to the L3 course if they choose.

Dates for future courses in 2025/26 in addition to the September cohort are still being finalised and will be added in September. All training days start at 8.30am and finish at 5.00pm.
