IFLA Survey of the Profession
IFLA Survey of the Profession
In partnership with the Council of Landscape Architectural Registration Boards (CLARB), IFLA is launching a survey of practice with the aims of better understanding the practice of landscape architecture around the globe. By identifying similarities and differences in practice regionally and by country, the project seeks to expand the role, definition, and mobility of the landscape architect as well as understand how changes in practice, such as the response climate change, have forced the profession to evolve.

IFLA partnered with CLARB in 2021 to assist in developing and analyzing the survey through a data-driven scientific psychometric process known as a Job Task Analysis (JTA) in which practitioners participate in sharing their knowledge, skills, education, and practice focus. To ensure wide representation of the global profession, the survey was developed by a work group of IFLA volunteers representing each IFLA Region at a three-day session in May 2022 and revalidated by the work group in June 2022.
The Global Survey of Practice will launch during the IFLA World Congress and be available to all practicing landscape architects globally.

The survey is available in six languages including, English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Chinese, and German and can be accessed at iflaworld.com/global-job-task-analysis.
