Learn the Basics of Urban Planning – Live, Online, Interactive Classes

A live online interactive class to learn the basics of urban planning concepts, terms and issues and how it all contributes to city building.

Discover what urban planning is, why we plan, types of plans, how plans are prepared and implemented, and related urban matters. In this class you will learn what urban planning is (aka city planning, land use planning, community planning), why we plan, types of plans, define land uses and calculate densities, and how plans are prepared and implemented. Additionally, the roles of planners, stakeholders, and decision-makers in planning and development processes.

This condensed introductory course is perfect for land-related professionals who want to advance their capabilities, students interested in exploring planning as a career, and the general public looking to better understand local community plans and development initiatives. Basically, it’s planning for non-planners.
