The Level 2 teacher certification class is for teachers who have successfully passed Level 1 Floral Certification. To earn this certification, you must have practiced the Level 2 asymmetrical design, corsage and rose arrangement and must demonstrate knowledge of the related concepts. New in 2025, completion of a portfolio is required before testing for Level 2 certification.
