It can be a truly life changing decision because the permaculture diploma pathway focuses on designs and design tools that can improve your sustainability, recilience and regenerative practices.
I am a qualified diploma tutor in the English system and regularly attend training updates. 
If you choose the Nordic system you can write in Danish or English, for the English system in English only.
The diploma pathway
Permaculture designing focuses strongly on the process of creating a design, with its different elements of survey, analysis, decisions, implementation, monitoring, evaluation, adjustments and reflections upon the whole process.
How you want to document your design processes is up to you. It can be writing, videoing, photos, audio or a combination of these media. You can create a homepage straight away to capture and share knowledge or use pen and paper.
The documentation enables accreditation. Setting up a system from the beginning of your pathway is recommended.
We will talk about what the diploma is and what I will do as a tutor.
We will also talk about what designs are and what the design processes are. If you already know what designs you want to do we'll have a look at them.
I will guide you to make the most of the designs and the diploma pathway.
If more apprentices want to start together, it is possible to organise a common introduction day.
The next tutorial can be after a few months or more, depending on your need.
It is recommended that you find a guild of diploma apprentices to support you on your pathway.
