AHC50621 is the nationally recognised Diploma of Landscape Design. It prepares you for work as a landscape gardener. It has been the current version on the national register since 2022, when it replaced AHC50616. 425 people enrolled in 2024, down 6.6% on the year before.
The signals behind this qualification are mixed, and both sides are worth weighing. Specifically: its main occupation is rated in national shortage and national enrolments are falling. These are official statistics, not a promise about any individual's result.
At least one occupation this qualification leads to is officially rated as in national shortage. In the 2025 Occupation Shortage List assessment, Landscape Gardener and Irrigation Technician are rated in national shortage.
Fewer people are training in this qualification than a year earlier. National enrolments fell from 455 in 2023, to 425 in 2024 (down 6.6%).
The register and the national framework set some of this. Providers set the rest.
State funding for AHC50621 is being verified against official program lists.
Eligibility and student contributions vary by program and provider. The official state listing is the source of truth. In a subsidised place the government pays most of the tuition and you pay a co-contribution set by the program and provider.
