CONTINUING EDUCATION OPPORTUNITIES
The Alaska Chapter of the American Society of Landscape Architects works to provide local opportunities for continuing education. Please use the calendar below to reference any CEU opportunities that might be coming up and please note we try to make any education opportunities free to our members when possible. Non-members are currently charged $25 per education event.
ONLINE LEARING
As shown on ASLA's ONLINE LEARNING page, ASLA Online Learning presentations provide information on new and evolving practices and techniques. These distance learning opportunities are also a convenient and affordable way to earn the professional development hours (PDH) needed to meet state licensure requirements. PDH are approved by the Landscape Architecture Continuing Education System™ (LA CES™) and can be earned after viewing a presentation by completing and passing a self study exam.
Take your pick between Live Presentations, Recorded Presentations, and even apply to provide your own discussion on the Speaker Proposal form.
