VIRGINIA APELSCIDLA BOARD Click here for: Licensure Update for Landscape Architechts in Virginia Important Changes to Virginia's Landscape Architect Regulatory Program Licensure to replace certification; continuing education requirements apply. The 2009 General Assembly amended the regulatory program for landscape architects administered by the Board for Architects, Professional Engineers, Land Surveyors, Certified Interior Designers and Landscape Architects (APELSCIDLA Board). Any person who holds a valid landscape architect certification, and is a Virginia-certified landscape architect in good standing on June 30, 2010, shall be licensed to practice landscape architecture as of July 1, 2010. Additionally, beginning with July 31, 2010, license expirations, landscape architects must attest to meeting the Board's continuing education requirement. For example, any licensed landscape architect with an expiration of July 31, 2010, must attest to 16 hours of continuing education obtained from August 1, 2008 - July 31, 2010. Refer to 18VAC10-20-683 (see below) for continuing education requirements. Additional information regarding the regulations is available on the Board's website at www.dpor.virginia.gov. Past and pending regulatory action is also available on the Town Hall website at: http://www.townhall.virginia.gov/L/ViewStage.cfm?stageid=5312 There is a PDF you can download and go to page 412 to see the new regs relevant to landscape architect licensure. This was a language clean-up to rid the regs of "certified landscape architect". These regs will become effective on July 1 of this year.
