Landscape Professional Certification
The Chesapeake Conservation Landscaping Council (CCLC) is a coalition of individuals and organizations dedicated to researching, promoting and educating professionals and the public about conservation landscaping to protect the Chesapeake Bay. We believe that landscape professionals have a unique opportunity to effect positive change, and we are laser-focused on providing the training and tools they need to protect and improve our environment. Our goal is to advance conservation landscaping practices that have significant ecological benefits for local waterways as well as the Chesapeake Bay.



Our signature program, the Chesapeake Bay Landscape Professional certification training, provides comprehensive instruction on the design, installation, and managment of sustainable landscaping and green infrastructure practices for the Bay region. We also offer topic-focused workshops and certificate courses on riparian buffers and BMP maintenance, and entry-level programs for young people. Get CBLP-certified and join the community this winter!
