Landscape Industry Certified

Landscape Industry CertifiedBeginning in January 2010, CNLA and the Professional Landcare Network (PLANET) are aligning their certification programs under one brand – Landscape Industry Certified.

The number of certified people is continuing to increase throughout Canada and the United States. Now that we are reaching a critical mass, we can start to achieve greater recognition, both by the industry and the public. The idea of marketing one single brand was brought about so that certification is more easily recognizable and understood by the buying public.

Certification assures your clients that you have proven skills as a landscape professional. A Landscape Industry Certified professional has passed internationally developed practical and written exams, verifying their capabilities in a full complement of job requirements. Many professionals hold certificates, degrees or diplomas, indicating their formal training. Certification is not a training program: it is proof of competency in specific areas.
