PARTICIPANT COMMENTS:
"Having completed an excellent course I have come out at the end a different person to when I started. I belive that I now have more confidence and knowledge of the planning system and my support role within it"
Mary Moore, Wiltshire County Council
"I always learn from these modules. If there is any new or pending legislation, it is normally discussed which is hugely beneficial. The course content is relevant and a greater understanding of the technical role is gained"
Emma Nasta, Fenland District Council
"This course has helped to clarify 1APP and the introduction of the LDF and given me confidence to be able to pass on that knowledge to the team of technical clerks I manage and help planning officers to manage these changes"
