Landscaper Certification Program

The California Native Plant Landscape Curriculum is a nine-part series that covers everything you need to know as a landscaper to successfully manage California native plants and California-friendly gardens. 

This 18-hour certificate program has been developed by the top native plant experts in the state and is being funded by LADWP to increase water conservation in home landscapes and to help enhance the earning potential for landscapers in their service district. Watch this recorded “An Introduction to the California Native Plant Training Curriculum” to learn more details about the program, www.youtube.com/ca-native-plant-training
