    Who is AHC30921 for?

    Landscape construction workers, leading hands and self-employed landscapers who already perform hardscaping, structures, irrigation and planting work and need the nationally recognised trade qualification.

    Is this just RPL?

    No. It is a training and assessment program that recognises the experience you bring. Genuine prior evidence is considered under standard RPL and credit transfer rules — we do not advertise instant or automatic RPL.

    What evidence will I need?

    Photos, job records and supervisor or client verification of landscape construction tasks you personally completed, plus knowledge assessments.

    Who this is for

    This qualification is for people already working in landscape construction who want a trade credential that reflects it. You are likely a good fit if you: - Work on paving, retaining walls, decks, irrigation or planting - Can gather evidence from current or recent landscape projects - Want a nationally recognised qualification rather than a short course
