Revised RHS Qualifications
The RHS is in the process of updating its Level 2 and Level 3 qualifications. This is normal practice for any awarding organisation and ensures that qualifications remain relevant, accurate and up-to-date. We are working with employers, training providers and learners to ensure that we continue to offer interesting and relevant qualifications that provide high-quality gardening skills and knowledge, and prepare learners for employment in the current horticultural industry.
Initially, the new qualifications were going to be launched for delivery from September 2021. However, with the challenges and uncertainty of the pandemic and in consultation with our approved centres, the response indicated that the preference was to delay implementation until September 2022. During this time, our existing suite of qualifications will continue to be delivered by our centres.
The revised Level 2 qualifications have been delivered since September 2022, for more information on the revised Level 2 qualifications please see our website:

The revised Level 3 qualifications will be delivered from September 2023, for more information on the revised Level 3 qualifications please see our website:

We appreciate that some learners may have concerns about the validity of qualifications they have either fully or partially completed. We can confirm that no learner will be disadvantaged by the introduction of the new qualifications and will be able to achieve the qualification on which they have enrolled.
