Get recognized with CLARB Certification

CLARB Certification is the industry stamp of approval that says you meet the high standards set by CLARB, making licensure a breeze.

This formal recognition demonstrates that your education, experience and examination meet or exceed the standards approved by CLARB's Board of Directors. These standards are aligned with the CLARB Uniform Licensure Standard for Landscape Architecture and are recommended internationally as the standard for licensure.  

CLARB recommends to all Member Boards or governing bodies that a CLARB Certified Record Holder be granted licensure or registration without further review.
