The RICH program has been revised and updated with a new format.

Enrollment is now open for the online lecture classes to be held in October and November 2022. The training will kick off with an orientation meeting on Tuesday, Sept. 29 followed by weekly classes, a review session and ending with a final exam on Dec. 13.

The plant ID section of RICH training will be held during the winter, with dates to be announced this fall.

The RICH certificate is earned by green industry professionals who pass an examination based on plant identification and the contents of newly revised RICH Training Manual.
