The New Zealand Institute of Landscape Architects Tuia Pito Ora (NZILA) is the professional body for landscape architects in NZ. The institute was founded in 1972, and provides registration to individuals and accreditation to education providers, operates branches around the country, and offers a number of awards, an annual conference and ongoing professional development. A Diploma in Landscape Design was awarded to Edgar Taylor in New Zealand in 1912, by the Canterbury Society for the Arts. However landscape architecture did not become established as a profession until the 1960s. The first undergraduate papers were offered in 1962 at Lincoln College (now Lincoln University) as part of the horticultural science degree. Up until this point training was largely undertaken in America: Harry Turbott, Jim Beard and Frank Boffa all qualified in the US, while Charlie (Sydney) Challenger was trained at Newcastle upon Tyne.
