Steps
Confirm eligibility and choose the applicable specialty track (softscape/hardscape installation, maintenance, or irrigation) on NALP's certification page.
Prepare using NALP study resources, available in English and Spanish.
Sit for and pass the certification exam as specified by NALP for the chosen track.
Track continuing education: earn 24 hours of qualifying CE (conferences, NALP online courses, OSHA-10, college courses, state association events, etc.) before the 2-year renewal deadline.
Submit the recertification application with the $110 renewal fee before the certification lapses.
Known gotchas
NALP now centers its flagship credential on the single 'Landscape Industry Certified Technician' program rather than a separately advertised 'Manager' track — confirm current program names directly on NALP's site before quoting a specific credential name to a client.
Recertification is a hard 2-year cycle with a CE-hour minimum, not automatic — letting it lapse typically means retaking the exam rather than a grace-period renewal.
