The mission of the Maui Association of Landscape Professionals (MALP) is to exemplify leadership by offering education to its membership, the industry, and the community.
Please join us for the 2018 Simplot Hawaii Turf and Landscape Seminars held on Oahu February 27th, Maui February 28th, and the Big Island March 2nd.
Educational credits for GCSAA and LICT members and Arborist credits will be offered depending upon the location.

In this economic recession none of us can afford to have financial mishaps — forget to invoice something: loose paper work for reimbursement: bid too low and end up working for less than we need: keeping tight control of inventory and all the paperwork necessary to run an efficient and effective business.
It is the necessary evil of any business — so to help our members gain control of the paperwork our speaker is Stuart T. Nakamoto. Stuart is a Professor and Extension Economist at the University of Hawaii at Manoa, Department of Human Nutrition, Food, and Animal Sciences (HNFAS) in the College of Tropical Agriculture and Human Resources. Stuart has been in his current position with UH-CTAHR since 1986. His training includes a PhD and MBA from UH.
Stuart’s extension/outreach and applied research activities are in the marketing of perishable products especially adding value and niche marketing, and in agricultural economics/agribusiness — as he puts it, “the business side of agriculture.”
It seems we always need records for something; to get a loan, or for taxes, or because the law requires it for spraying chemicals or to be “organic”. Financial records are the foundation for documents such as your balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow.
This presentation may be of interest to you if:
Attendees will receive samples of some record keeping forms and learn how those forms might be used in their own record keeping system.
Stuart has put together an interactive presentation that will be informative and fun – Hope to see you there.
Below is the CLT testing dates held on the neighbor islands. Maui at this stage does not offer the testing on this island. We are in the process of setting up the classes for the written test. If any of our members are interested in taking their CLT certification, MALP can provide a grant for the member to take it on one of the other islands.
