Newly named an approved provider to ASLA’s Landscape Architecture Continuing Education System (LA CES), NRMCA is launching its first course for society members, Pervious Concrete: A Stormwater Solution. The course, which examines pavementsÌ engineering properties, construction practice, and runoff management potential, is the first to receive LA CES status. Part of a growing LA CES catalog, the online course will be offered March 17, 24, and 31, followed by summer dates.
In addition to ASLA, Pervious Concrete is approved for American Institute of Architects and U.S. Green Building Council continuing education credits.
