Studying from Dalaba

Dalaba farms at altitude and welcomes visitors all year: highland market gardening, orchards, crafts and lodging. You follow an IHETC programme online, building the management, hospitality and digital trade skills these activities need.

Seasonal business, continuous study

Hosting visitors and growing produce each have their season, and they do not always coincide. The programme runs continuously across those cycles: nothing imposes hours, the order of modules within a period is yours, and everything can be followed offline from a phone. Assessments are set in the calendar from day one, letting you prepare them in the quiet season and sit them fully prepared. Downloaded content stays usable offline for as long as needed.

Climate as a resource

The Dalaba plateau offers what the coast does not: cool air, highland soils and an extended growing season. The result is quality market gardening, orchards, fruit and flower crops, established crafts and a flow of visitors drawn by the climate and the landscapes. These activities share one requirement: becoming known beyond word of mouth, keeping accounts, pricing correctly and organising consistent hospitality. Digital tools multiply a clientele that would otherwise be limited to passers-by.

Settling your fees from Dalaba

Instalments follow the season when your business takes money in: you state those months at enrolment, the due dates are set there, and a spread payment costs the same total as a single one. The list of what your fees cover is complete: all the content of the path, supervision, marking, the tutor, assessments and scheduled resits, the certificate and its public verification.

A single amount stands, from the first payment to the last.

Questions asked from Dalaba

Can I learn to sell what I produce online?

That is precisely what the digital marketing and online trade paths cover: presenting an offer, photographing a product, running a page, answering enquiries, organising delivery and measuring what works. Assessed work is built on your own business.

Do these paths require technical knowledge?

Introductory formats start from where you are and explain each tool at the moment it is used. The real prerequisite is written on each programme page: when it says a piece of knowledge is assumed, it means the course builds on it from the first session.

Do I keep access to courses after the path ends?

Yes, the content you followed stays available afterwards, which helps when a season brings the same question back. Your certificate and its verification link also remain permanently accessible.
