Tips On Getting Your License Approved?


Any suggestions on how to validate landscaping experience to the ROC when you don't really have any paid experience? I have been doing landscaping for myself, friends, and family for years, but I don't think the ROC will buy it. I have a financial/management background too! Help!

Yes, passed with flying colors. They now want 4 years experience as a journeyman, supervisor, foreman, etc. I've been doing this as an amatuer, probably better than most licensed landscapers in my area. I know this stuff, but will now need to convince them of that. Thanks for your reply.
