I agree completely – I’ve worked with a number of experienced architects and planners who all assumed that “ASLA” means that that person is licensed. I wish that ASLA would get its act together so that all licensed LAs could use the same letters and have them mean something- this would strengthen the impression of the profession among our architect/ engineer peers as well as the general public. There is already enough confusion about landscape architects vs landscape designers, without ASLA adding ambiguity to the issue.
