Landscape
Industry Certified Technician - Exterior specialize
in Irrigation, Ornamental or Turf Maintenance, and Softscape
or Hardscape Installation. Sign
up for this test. Once you have signed up the INLA
office will send you a test book with the actual items you need
to study for for your exams. The test books are more specific
than the manuals and they include all the items you need to be
aware of during testing; safety equipment, timed tests, and all
the items that need to be completed in the alotted time.
The CLT manuals are full of excellent information on the individual
subjects (Irrigation, Maintenance and Landscape). Many people
use them as reference material and as training guides for employees.
Once an application for the Landscape Industry Certified CLT-E
exam is received the applicant receives a training manual. The
training manual will be for the specialty exam he/she has chosen
(Ornamental Maintenance, Turf maintenance, Softscape, Hardscape
or Irrigation). The training manual is very detailed as to what
is expected of the candidate to pass each specific site test
in their chosen specialty. The training guide will refer back
to the CLT manuals so it is recommended that candidates have
them on hand.
