Q: How can I decide which course to undertake?

Firstly, you need to determine the purpose and motive for which you want to enrol in the flower arrangement class. Are you doing the course because you want to be able to do some flowers at home for a party or a social gathering? Do you want to do the course because you want to become a professional florist or enter the field of floral design? Do you want an introduction to the world of flowers so you can decide whether this field is for you? Or do you want to improve your aesthetics and get a sense of therapeutic calmness from doing the course? Knowing the motive behind doing the course will make the decision-making process much easier.
