Reaccreditation
Annual AOLCP Reaccreditation Process
The AOLCP credential must be maintained and renewed annually, by fulfilling the following requirements:
- Paying the $110 reaccreditation fee to NOFA OLC
- Completing at least 4 hours of continuing education
- Reaffirming your commitment to practice organic land care according to the principles and practices outlined in the Standards for Organic Land Care and by the Organic Land Care Program.
Use the AOLCP portal to check the status and expiration date of your current accreditation and to reaccredit. If your accreditation has lapsed for more than one year, please contact us before you reaccredit.
Accreditation and the Organic Land Care Guide Business Listing
Remember that accreditation is achieved by an individual, not a business! If the individual’s accreditation lapses, the business listing will be removed.
When you reaccredit, we suggest that you also check your business listing on the Organic Land Care Guide. If the information is accurate, you don’t need to do anything. If you do need to alter your listing, please submit changes here.
