Genech — a landscaped park of 10 hectares.
The website of Genech has 10-hectare landscaped park, a true open-air laboratory for landscape gardening students. This verdant environment, which evolves with the rhythm of the seasons, provides a living educational aid for discovering, experimenting with and perfecting the techniques of the trade.
Pupils learn there to design, landscape and maintain landscaped areas, working directly on the ground. Flower beds, planting, green space management or even the organisation of landscaping projects: each project allows you to develop practical, professional skills.
As a supplement, a covered workshop and specialised technical areas allow learners to practise professional techniques and create various landscape structures, such as paving, hard landscaping features or the use of professional equipment. Greenhouses and dedicated learning spaces complete these facilities.
These facilities also provide an ideal setting for preparing for vocational competitions like WorldSkills, allowing students to confront the demands for excellence in the landscape profession.
Lesquin — the Engrain estate.
On the doorstep of the Lille metropolitan area, in Lesquin, the Engrain Estate offers a premier learning environment of 3 hectares, combining nature, relaxation and vocational training. A true haven of greenery, it provides a unique environment where learners work closely with real-world conditions.
The landscaped park, structured around green spaces, a open-air amphitheatre, technical workshops and experimentation areas, becomes a true place of expression and achievement for pupils and apprentices.
The landscape workshop provides training under real-life conditions through a comprehensive and professional technical platform. Learners develop their skills there through practical activities: landscaping, machinery operation and landscape masonry work (OAD). These practical scenarios encourage the acquisition of solid technical know-how that can be directly applied in the workplace.
Thanks to this hands-on field experience, students gradually build their professional skills within a stimulating environment, closely aligned with the requirements of the landscape sector.
