Abstract
Orientation to Turfgrass Apprenticeship is designed to introduce apprentices and pre-apprentices to the related instruction component of the Groundskeeper apprenticeship. Students in this course will learn how to navigate D2L, the online learning delivery platform. Many of the related instruction courses offered in this program will require students to complete tasks/projects at their place of employment. These tasks will need to be documented in an apprenticeship portfolio to demonstrate completion and understanding of the tasks. This course will also serve to provide students with a firm understanding of how to complete their apprenticeship portfolio. The portfolio will be a working document and will be updated each semester as the student progresses through the related instruction. Students in this program will also be required to come to SUNY Delhi each January that they are enrolled in the program for a hands-on component in several courses. The requirements and expectations for this portion of the courses will also be covered in Orientation to Turfgrass Apprenticeship.

Description
This new, one-of-a-kind course will require all materials to be developed from scratch. The majority of this course will be self-paced and run asynchronously. However, because it is the apprentice’s introduction to the related instruction component, there will be regularly scheduled check ins, assignments and meetings with the instructor.
