Description
Since 1963, the Ernst Schröder Foundation has been promoting vocational training and continuing education in horticulture nationwide, targeting private individuals, educational institutions, and non-profit organizations. With the aim of supporting both young horticulturists and experienced professionals alike, the foundation provides grants for professional qualification measures. In addition to traditional courses and seminars, teaching and learning materials are financially supported. Furthermore, the awarding of individual scholarships enables ambitious trainees and young specialists to access specialized further training. In the event of a disaster, gardeners in distress can rely on unbureaucratic assistance, while experts from research and practice are supported in conducting investigations into technical, economic, or cultural developments in horticulture.
The funding opportunities are continuously available for application and also include measures for plant breeding as well as the publication of relevant studies. As a grant provider, the foundation contributes to sustainably strengthening the quality and innovative capacity of the industry. Educational institutions can benefit just as much as individuals seeking to expand their professional skills. Through the close integration of practice, science, and talent promotion, this program creates a vibrant platform for networking and knowledge exchange. Interested gardeners and training companies will find here a long-term partner for their professional development.
