This new edition features:

  • Indispensible information for practicing landscape architects, including professional ethics, finances, office administration, marketing and promotion, and project management
  • An updated look at government regulatory laws, federal tax administration, sustainable design, and LEED certification
  • Strategies for using the Internet, computer software, and technology to market and manage a firm
  • Examples of professional contract templates
  • Case study profiles of landscape architecture firms
  • Requirements for professional registration and criteria for taking the national exam

This comprehensive and practical reference combines real-world experience with the highest professional standards to instruct the reader on business concepts.
