2014

educational programs

The 2014 Landscape Architects' Expo (LA Expo), now in its third year will host nearly 30 CEU approved seminars. Additionally, accreditation from the ISA will be added, as many landscape architects are certified arborists as well.

Attendees can expect to see a strong sustainable track, including courses "Lighting Design for the Dark-Sky" and "Rainwater Harvesting". Other tracks include arbor, business management, public welfare, urban planning and water management. Be on the lookout for updated educational program information.

Seminars to be Announced Soon!
