Certainly! Here are additional details about the schedule and duration of our beekeeping course:
Duration: Our course is designed to be an accelerated learning experience, condensing the essentials of beekeeping into a comprehensive two-day program. This intensive format allows you to gain a solid foundation of knowledge and practical skills in a short period.
Day 1: The first day of the course focuses on theory and classroom-based learning. You’ll dive into the fascinating world of bees, covering topics such as bee biology, behaviour, hive components, honey production, and hive management techniques. Our knowledgeable instructor will guide you through engaging presentations, interactive discussions, and visual aids to ensure a thorough understanding of the subject matter.
Day 2: The second day is dedicated to hands-on experience and practical application. You’ll have the opportunity to work directly with beekeeping equipment, practice hive inspections, and gain confidence in handling bees. Under the expert guidance of our beekeeper, you’ll learn essential skills such as opening a beehive, identifying different hive components, and understanding the signs of a healthy hive. This hands-on session is a highlight of the course, allowing you to put your knowledge into practice and develop the necessary skills to become a successful beekeeper.
Schedule: Our beekeeping course typically runs over a weekend to accommodate participants’ schedules. The course begins in the morning and concludes in the afternoon on both days. Specific start and end times will be communicated to participants upon registration to ensure a smooth and organised learning experience.
Please note that while we strive to cover a comprehensive beekeeping curriculum in the given time frame, beekeeping is a vast subject, and our course serves as an introductory and intermediate level program. It provides you with a solid foundation and practical skills to start your beekeeping journey confidently.
At the end of the course, you’ll receive a certificate of completion, recognising your dedication and achievement in beekeeping education.
