Cycle 12 of the annual Elfin Permaculture Design Course Online begins October 14, 2007. The course runs about six months and includes reading assignments from books, papers and the course CD, 4 reports from each student including a full permaculture design report, regular class assignments, and class discussion via email.

Instructors are course designer, Dan Hemenway, principal discussion leader Dr. Willem Smuts, and special instructor Cynthia Hemenway, CNM, who leads the Design for Health module. Bob Waldrop is a teaching assistant.

Enrollment of certificate students is limited. Up to 20 non-certificate students (no design report) and unlimited monitors (no participation) may join in.

The course CD, which includes more than 300 items including papers, course assignments, instructor's lectures, background information, reference databases, and sample designs, is available separately in a special, non-certificate edition.

The current course protocol and related information including instructor CVs may be downloaded from http://www.barkingfrogspermaculture.org/Protocol3_4_07.pdf.
Additional information, including an outline of the course content, is available at http://www.barkingfrogspermaculture.org/onlinepdc.htm .

There are several levels of participation, thus allowing you to tailor the course for your needs. For only $250, you can monitor the course -- which means that you receive all messages/discussion related to course content, plus you get the course CD with hundreds of pages of permaculture material that is not available elsewhere. You can participate in study group discussions. You can't post to the whole group, however, nor do you submit assignments.

If you are primarily interested in gaining a basic knowledge of permaculture, and are not looking to earn a permaculture design certificate, then monitoring the 12th cycle of the Online Permaculture Design Course would be a great way to go. The class CD that comes with the course is a great resource.
