Please join us in a candid and information discussion among students and professionals about the realities of the planning profession. Obtain insight, career advice, and network with practitioners.
The purpose of the workshop is to “bridge the gap” between planners and community based organizations (CBOs). The workshop will provide a platform for CBOs to better understand the role of city and regional planners in community development, and acquire access to information that can help them become strong and sustainable entities within their target populations. It will also give planners an opportunity to learn more about CBO’s, what they do, and their needs.
Please join us at this free information session hosted by NJ TRANSIT to promote the sustainable development Local Demonstration Project (LDP) program. These information sessions will educate you on what the LDP is and how to fill out a successful application.
The Review Course is expected to cover general exam topics including the State Plan, environmental regulations, affordable housing, Planning Board and Board of Adjustment activities, MLUL, regional planning entities, and other material relative to the PP Exam. Additionally, all students will receive a complimentary copy of the 2010 Complete Guide to Planning in New Jersey.
While communities are well attuned to the diversification and globalization of U.S. cities and towns, how they can respond to these trends in practice is less well understood. This forum will present an overview of some key concepts, trends and issues to consider when planning in immigrant and multi-ethnic contexts.
