A Close Look at Gardening Regulations in Australia

A gardener doesn't necessarily need a license to provide gardening services on a large scale for residential and commercial places. However, because of the higher demand for gardening services these days, it is better for a gardener to obtain vocational qualifications. Because these qualifications help them in developing knowledge and useful skills. One such vocational qualification a gardener can obtain is Certificate III in Horticulture (AHC30716).

Moreover, a gardening services provider should also check with local authority guidelines and regulations. Abiding by them lets a gardener know the differentiation between legal and illegal work. However, as a gardener, if you want to obtain Gardening AQF III, then you must show proof of 3 years of working experience in the industry. The reason for this is that certain garden services can be only done with Gardening AQF III in hand.
