Certified Urban and Rural Planners
The American Planning Association (APA) certifies urban and rural planning professionals through the American Institute of Certified Planners (AICP). AICP’s Continuing Professional Development Program encourages all certified planners to pursue continuing education. The principal requirement is a minimum number of 60 hours of professional development credit obtained over a three-year period.
Participants keep track of their CEUs. There is no pre- or post-approval of CEUs. Chapters need only to offer programs that may benefit planners and provide verification of attendance.
