As the autonomous accrediting arm of the American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA), LAAB's mission is to evaluate, advance and advocate for the quality of professional landscape architecture education.
LAAB is composed of landscape architecture practitioners and academicians, representatives from landscape architecture collateral organizations and representatives of the public. The collateral organizations are the American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA), Council of Landscape Architectural Registration Boards (CLARB) and Council of Educators in Landscape Architecture (CELA).
