LARE Preparation Courses in Northern California

[Ray Freeman]

This is posted under events, but I’ll put it here as well.

 

 

Freeman & Jewell Landscape Architecture is once again offering our popular series of preparatory courses for candidates taking the Landscape Architect Registration Examination. The courses are generally offered four times each year in Northern California, usually four to six weeks prior to the examination dates. Our classes have attracted students from 36 states, 5 Canadian Provinces, Washington DC, Puerto Rico, and Germany.

 

All of our courses are current with the 2006 exam format, and are updated every six months. We offer a class on the multiple choice sections in January and July.

 

Class Dates:

Section E_(Standard) October 14-16                           Fri-Sat-Sun 8:30-6:00 pm

Section C_October 28-30                                       Fri-Sat-Sun 8:30-6:00 pm

Section E  (Advanced) November 11-13                        Fri-Sat-Sun 8:30-6:00 pm

 

We have a strict maximum of 26 students per class to allow for individual one on one desk crits during vignette work periods. I have 11 years of experience in teaching LARE reviews and have helped over 1100 students prepare for the exam. Our students pass rates are consistently well above the national average.

 

Instructor: Ray Freeman, ASLA, RLA in California, Massachusetts, and North Carolina and CPESC (nationwide). Over 30 years experience in private practice, plus a few odd years in the public sector. Former lecturer at Harvard, UC Berkeley, UC Davis Extension, and Cal Poly San Luis Obispo.

 

The classes cover exam formats, tips and tricks, and feature programmed instruction focusing on developing the skills needed to solve every known type of technical task required on these sections of the LARE. The format of the classes are lecture, question and answer, and studio-like work sessions with desk crits and review of each exercise or vignette done in class. In addition to a study guide, students will receive at least 21 problems in the C review and 28 in the E review, of which about 10 will be worked in class.

Location: Marin Headlands (15 minutes north of San Francisco). The setting is unmatched. Unfortunately, we won’t give you much time to enjoy the view. Inexpensive bunkhouse style accommodations at the facility are available, and there is a very reasonably priced shuttle service from SFO airport.

 

Cost: $450 per course.
