Late 2011, several state and division chapters of the American
Planning Association banded together to cooperatively host a series
of educational webinars for members of the respective organizations.
In addition to a number of webinars eligible for Certification
Maintenance (CM), the chapters will host a series of webinars in
February and March 2012 to help prepare planners for the AICP
(American Institute of Certified Planners) exam. Specifically,
experienced instructors from the Illinois, Maryland, Pennsylvania,
and North Carolina chapters will present information during the 2012
AICP Exam Review webinar series.
Beginning February 10 through March 30, instructors will present
during 2 hour webinars each Friday morning between 8:00 and 10:00
a.m. CST. The webinars will cover the following topics:
February 10 - Exam Overview
February 10 - Spatial Analysis of
Planning Practice
February 17 - Functional Areas of
Planning Practice
February 24- Public Participation and
Social Justice
March 2- Plan Making and
Implementation
March 9 - Research and Quantitative
Methods
March 16- Planning Law
March 23- AICP Code of Ethics
March 30 - Planning History and
Theory
Up to 1000 participants from chapters participating in the
webinar cooperative (please consult with your chapter’s Professional
Development Officer to learn if your chapter is a member of the
co-op) will be able to register for the course for free.
Most presentation materials and webcasts will be available after the
meeting. Recorded webcasts and referenced materials will be posted
to the Utah APA chapter website at
