We have recently (February, 2015) revealed that our e-learning
initiative Garden Retail Online Workshops (GROW) is going from strength-to-strength.
After a positive 2014, two new modules have been launched
for the initiative, which helps member garden centres keep their customer
service at the highest standards, with plans for more in the future.
Mike Burks, who, alongside Tammy Woodhouse, is one of our
executive committee members helping to deliver GROW, said: “2014 was an
extremely successful year for GROW. Six new organisations signed up and we
launched several new e-learning modules, including Basic Planting, Basic
Houseplants, GYO Tomatoes, Christmas Houseplants and Think 21/Think 25, which
is a module that deals with the legal aspects surrounding the sale of age
restricted products.
