CERTIFIED NURSERY & LANDSCAPE PROFESSIONALS

NEW BUMPER STICKER AVAILABE TO CNLP CERTIFIED PROFESSIONALS In July of 2010 I received a request from Chris Stafford, who took and passed all five parts of the Certified Nursery and Landscape Professional Exam, asking if there was a bumper sticker promoting the LNLA CNLP professionals. I said no but, would look into creating one. We now have a bumper sticker with the LNLA logo and below that it’s stated “Certified Nursery & Landscape Professional” all in one bumper sticker. If you have passed all 5 parts of the CNLP exam, you may request a bumper sticker to display on your vehicle or in your office. You also may request it electronically to put on your advertising or on your stationary. Contact Severn C, Doughty, Sr. 318-872-4677 or scd357@cmaaccess.com. The 2011 CNLP dates are listed on page 26 of this publication. A registration form is available online at www.lnla.org
