Please give thoughtful consideration to members of your component association or colleagues across the country whom you think deserve consideration for this esteemed honour. Please down load the nomination forms and return to you component associations as nominees to the College of Fellows. Nominations received by the College will be reviewed by the College Jury and reported to the Chair and Secretary of the College as recommended for entrance into the College.

Fellowship in the CSLA is more than an honour. Fellows of the CSLA have taken a leadership role in many professional activities and organizations that advance the cause of the profession of landscape architecture. Of particular note is the formulation of the CSLA Landscape Architecture Accreditation Council (LAAC) in 1986 and the Landscape Architecture Canada Foundation (LACF) in 1987. Fellows serve on both the Accreditation Council that sets standards for professional education in Canada and on accreditation teams that regularly review the quality of our university programs.

Through the Campaign of Fellows, over $320,000 has been donated to LACF by CSLA Fellows since 1988. These donations form the principal investment from which funding is generated for LACF's annual grants program. In one province, Fellows also serve as an informal advisory group to the component association board, contributing their insights and experience. These are just a few of the important contributions CSLA's Fellows make to strengthening the profession in Canada.
