Description:
Apply to be part of the 2023-25 Women of Color Licensure Advancement Program.
State licensure signifies a level of professional competency and is an important way to achieve greater career and business success. The ASLA Fund has launched the Women of Color Licensure Advancement Program to support women of color in their pursuit of landscape architecture licensure and increase racial and gender diversity within the profession. As outlined in the Racial Equity Plan of Action, ASLA is committed to fostering equity and inclusion within the profession and making significant strides to ensure that the makeup of the profession closely mirrors the communities landscape architects serve.
In its second year, the program will provide 10 women of color with a two-year, personalized experience that includes up to $3,500 to cover the cost of sections of the Landscape Architectural Registration Exam (LARE), along with exam preparation courses, resources, and mentorship from a licensed landscape architect.
Applicants must be:
- A current ASLA member in good standing or eligible for ASLA membership at the associate, full, or affiliate membership levels.
- Identify as a woman and be a person of color.
- Eligible to sit for the LARE in the state where they are pursuing licensure.
Applications are due June 30.
