Are you preparing to take the LARE?
If so, plan on attending the INASLA Annual Meeting on Friday, October 24th for an afternoon LARE Workshop! This workshop will be most beneficial to anyone planning to take the LARE/Section C and/or E for the first time, or those who have had prior difficulty with the Sections.
The session will begin promptly after the lunch & awards presentation, and will end by 4:45pm. This workshop is packed with information on Sections C and E of the Landscape Architect Registration Exam (LARE). Among the topics covered will be:

  • Review of example problems, solutions, and evaluations
  • Advice/perspective from people who recently passed the exam
Attendees will complete a short vignette problem. So BRING all the tools necessary to take these exams (pencil/eraser, engineering scale, drafting equipment, trash paper, and calculator). Once complete, we will review & discuss the vignette's solution.
