The University of Maryland Master Gardening state coordinated Advanced Training Program began in order to meet the high demand by Maryland Master Gardener Volunteers (MGV's) for more in-depth advanced training opportunities.

<>Robin Hessey, MG Advanced Training Coordinator, and Jon Traunfeld, State Master Gardener Coordinator, administer the program from the Home and Garden Information Center in Ellicott City.

Two levels of training are offered. 

• Level I, or continuing education training, will consist of short courses, ranging from a one hour course to an entire day devoted to a single topic.
• Level II training will be much more in-depth, and consist of approximately 24 hours or more of training on a single topic.
