Agriculture can be defined as the husbandry or cultivation of animals, plants or fungi to enhance or sustain human life and it has played a key part in Australian history and development. Careerline Courses offers a wide range of agriculture courses online, including Sustainable Agriculture, Agriculture Marketing, Agronomy, Animal Husbandry courses (including cattle, sheep, goats, poultry and more), Farm Management and a huge range of cropping courses from Aquaculture and Berries through to Viticulture and more.
Who are these online agriculture courses courses for?
These courses will work for you if you are looking for a fully tutor supported agriculture course that is not a huge commitment, that doesn’t cost you the earth but will still get you thinking and learning and most importantly get you the result you want. Many students do a single subject as a stepping stone to a bigger thing, or find its enough to help improve their yields, have better animal husbandry or improved farm management.
Do I have to know much about agriculture before I start?
No, our agriculture certificate courses assume no prior knowledge and are designed as a practical guide to help you learn.
What Support will I Receive?
All our online agriculture courses come with unlimited experienced and expert tutor support via email. We only employ tutors who are current in their field which means they are not sitting around our office waiting for phone calls! We find email works best, if there is a problem that can’t be resolved give us a call on 07 5536 8783 or email our student support desk.

When you enrol will receive a welcome email from your tutor. You are free to email them for help or guidance as much as you need to. We employ tutors who are active in their field so the support is by email.
How long are the courses?
Generally the agriculture farming courses should take you about 100 hours of study. We give you up to 12 months to complete the course, but you can finish faster. Each lesson has a written assignment for you will receive individual feedback from your tutor. There are also self assessment quizzes for each lesson (non assessable). The strength of our courses is in that each lesson has an assignment, this means you are forced to engage with the content and can’t just skip over an important lesson. By the end of the course you have really engaged and that equals learning!
Additionally we now have a selection of 20 hour short courses which do not have written assignments to submit.
