There are a number of benefits you get from attending Rittners School of Floral Design

You will benefit because at Rittners Floral School our Sept. Day Course, 12.5 Week Evening Program and Five Week Concentrated Courses provide more than "just the basics." They start simply, but include advanced floral art technique....This makes them quite practical as well as enjoyable....... Our goal in these programs is to give you a complete package, not to make you keep coming back over and over again for more design courses.

You will benefit from a staff that includes people who know how to teach. At Rittners Floral School our staff does not consist of just floral designers "learning to teach." One of your instructors has a doctorate in teaching. The benefit to you is with clear and well presented teaching, learning floral art will be so much easier and much more fun!!!

You will benefit from the fact that the owner of the school is actively involved in the everyday teaching. At Rittners we want to know you, and have an interest in your professional growth and development. That means that "the boss" is very much hands on. That assures you of the quality that you deserve.

You will benefit because at Rittners Floral School our programs are paced comfortably. Our courses are deliberately designed so that you will not be overloaded, stressed out, or ever feel like you are being drilled in boot camp. The idea is to cover a lot, but also to present it and pace it so that you will be able to enjoy yourself!!! This is only possible because the folks who developed the courses are professional educators as well as floral designers. Knowledge of teaching, and how much folks can absorb comfortably is critical to your enjoyment. We have that knowledge and we are committed to making your experience pleasant and fun!!!

You will benefit because at Rittners Floral School you will take home every floral design that you make. Not just a few flowers at the end of the session. We feel that your time is better spent making floral art......not recycling materials. Besides which, they are your designs.....to be admired by your family and friends. We believe that you are entitled to value, and taking home every design is one way to give you that value.

You benefit because at Rittners Floral School teaching floral design is our primary means of support. The benefit to you is that our program is not done in-between filling holiday orders or as a hobby. Your staff gives you the attention that you deserve, rather than worrying about filling an order for the "Smiths." When we are not teaching, we are preparing classes and doing the support services that our students deserve, not worrying about selling vase arrangements for someones dinner party. Besides which, we don't feel that it's right to compete with our students and graduates for retail trade.
