Upon completion of a ReScape Qualification Training, graduates join ReScape California as a “ReScape Qualified Professional (RQP)” member. ReScape Qualified Professionals are required to stay current on their qualification by submitting 3 CEU’s and updating membership annually.
One ReScape CEU equals one hour of education or training from ReScape or another educational source on a sustainable or regenerative landscaping practice related to one or more of ReScape’s 8 Principles.
Your ReScape Qualified Professional status represents a significant commitment to using landscape practices that protect air, water, wildlife and the community.
Renewing your qualification also gives you:
In 2017 Sacramento EcoLandscape California’s River-Friendly programs merged with ReScape California’s Bay-Friendly programs. Thus, you are eligible to become a 2020 ReScape Qualified Professional (RQP) Member if you graduated from one of the following programs:

You will receive a notification email when it’s time to renew your membership.
If Your Qualification is Expired: Renew your Qualification by participating in ReScape CEU-eligible trainings and events and renew your membership. 3 CEU’s are required for annual renewal.
