If you are one of the AICP planners who is still working on fulfilling their 2010/2011 reporting cycle CM credits, the grace period for that ends April 30th. If your CM requirement of 32 credits (including a minimum of 1.5 law and 1.5 ethics) is not met by April 30th, your AICP membership lapses, retroactive to January 1st of this year. There are quite a few options, many free or low-cost, to gain CM credits prior to the deadline, including:
- 3/29: Making Energy Planning Work, 3 CM credits pending, PDI session at DVRPC
- NJ events, including a 3/23 event on redevelopment in Trenton
- Upcoming webcasts as part of the Chapters, Divisions, and Universities Webcast Series, including a March 22nd session on ethics
- A limited number of prior webcasts (specifically law and ethics) registered for distance education credits
Please see the PA Chapter Calendar of Events for a detailed listing of upcoming training sessions, both in-person and web-based.
Additionally, the PA Chapter has a CD lending library of CM training and APA has an extensive list of available CM training (which includes more than 32 free distance education CM credits).
