Landscape Architect Renewal & Reinstatement

Renewal

Renewals open on October 1 of odd-numbered calendar years, and are due by December 31. In order to renew, licensees must have acquired 24 hours of HSW continuing education units (CEUs) during the 2-year reporting period. Licensees cannot renew until the required CEUs are obtained. See Chapter 4 of the Rules and Regulations for CE guidelines. Click here for renewal FAQs.

Renewals received after December 31 and before June 1 will incur a $5.00 per month late fee. Failure to renew a license by June 1 will require reinstatement to return to active status per Rule 1.9.
