Scott Lebsack replied to the topic RFQ/RFP's-Where do you find them? in the forum PROFESSIONAL PRACTICE 13 years ago
I realize this is an older post, but thought I’d offer my suggestions. Generally state laws require RFP/RFQ be “published”, this means you can find them in the legal sections of local newspapers. I check the local newspaper’s website as well as the websites of the agencies themselves directly.

Scott Lebsack replied to the topic Does Our Profession Need a Union? in the forum GENERAL DISCUSSION 13 years, 8 months ago
Haven’t been to Detroit, but do understand that Unions bargained against Corporations… To claim unions are at fault for the decisions Corporations made against their own interests is ludicrous.
Corporations at least since the ’80’s have moved to a Quarter focused mindset, cut corners today to get a good share price get my bonus and hopefully I’m…[Read more] -

Scott Lebsack replied to the topic Upcoming Section C; the LARE in general in the forum PROFESSIONAL PRACTICE 13 years, 11 months ago
If you are having difficulties I would strongly recommend Ray Freeman’s Review Course, if it is still available. I took it in the Bay area around 2006. I was lucky enough to live locally, but there were attendees from across the country. I invested money in the review before even taking the test.

Scott Lebsack replied to the topic Section D? in the forum GENERAL DISCUSSION 13 years, 11 months ago
It seems like the Pass/Fail rates especially on this section is one of the points Landscape Architecture Licensing Boards use in an attempt to legitimize the profession. in order to get that rate low, there can be “tricks” used to catch and fail some test takers (example @ the end of this comment). Not to pass judgement, understanding/evaluating a…[Read more]
