CLARB has worked to protect the world’s people, places and environment through landscape architecture for over 50 years. The non-profit organization designs, promotes and defends landscape architectural standards with its 56 licensure boards across Canada, the United States, Puerto Rico and the Northern Mariana Islands. CLARB also works to strengthen the future of the landscape architecture profession worldwide through international partnerships, collaboration, advocacy and research that protect the health, safety and welfare of the global community. 

CLARB offers the Landscape Architect Registration Examination (L.A.R.E.), which assesses the ability of prospective licensees to protect the public’s health, safety and welfare. CLARB also manages a professional information system called the CLARB Council Record, through which landscape architects document and verify their education, experience, examination and licensure history. The Record helps reduce barriers to mobility by streamlining the initial and reciprocal licensure processes. 

With a staff of 14, CLARB relies on volunteer leadership to advance its mission and strategic objectives.

CLARB sponsors and Supporting Partners may engage with four primary audience groups:  

The CLARB Annual Meeting brings together 125+ professionals from state/provincial regulatory agencies and practicing landscape architects to exchange the knowledge and connections that are key to their regulatory work. It’s a great opportunity to build and nurture relationships with decision-makers from CLARB’s 56 member licensure boards across Canada, the United States, Puerto Rico and the Northern Mariana Islands who regulate 20,000+ licensed professionals. 

The Annual Meeting features educational sessions, keynote speaker(s), networking experiences and sponsor exhibit space (new for 2024).

The CLARB Supporting Partners program offers engagement opportunities and exclusive access to CLARB Members and Council Record Holders; communications and insights to help you understand how to better serve practitioners; year-round visibility and brand awareness; and special opportunities aligned with the CLARB Annual Meeting.

CLARB partners with North America’s largest B2B publisher, Multiview, to produce our email newsletter, The Council Record Connection.  With this customized news brief, we’re proud to offer Council Record Holders a hand-curated selection of relevant news and CLARB updates.

On occasion, a Multiview rep may reach out on behalf of CLARB to discuss advertising opportunities.
