Hot Cares really does have some amazing partners and Lifestyle College are a great example of this.

They identified Hot Cares as the perfect vehicle for an opportunity they are providing for someone who loves gardening.

As a result, Hot Cares and Lifestyle College have come together to offer one lucky recipient an incredible bursary for a Landscape Design course, valued at an amazing R83 000! This covers tuition and course material.

It’s a 12-month full-time programme that runs from 3 April this year to April of 2024, with induction day on Friday 31 March.

This course has been running for over 25 years and offers in-depth knowledge of the landscape industry. It includes lectures, workshops, practicals and outings, and covers approximately 30 different subjects, enabling the student upon completion to: start their own landscaping business, including design and implementation; work for a landscaping business; or start a consultancy design business.

The course also teaches AutoCAD and provides a year’s free licence to AutoCAD to all its students. Lecturers are fully trained and qualified in their various fields of expertise.

The minimum requirement for entrants is a Matric, Grade 12 or higher. This is a full-time course suitable for those not in full-time employment. Classes are conducted Monday-Friday from 09h00-16h00 at Lifestyle College in Randpark Ridge. Candidates will require a laptop with certain specifications.

To enter, entrants must send their contact details and a motivation to [email protected] by 24 March 2023. All selected entries will be forwarded to Lifestyle College for the final selection, interview process, and the choice of the winning candidate.
