Whatever your interest in planning, you'll probably find a useful and interesting BOCEP course this spring. (And, as you'll see below, you can get $50 off each course.) More than 90% of professionals who took our courses said in surveys they would recommend Bloustein Online Continuing Education for Planners to other planning professionals. We're offering several courses starting on May 31 and June 14:

Urban Design for Safety and Security is good for anyone in community development, city planning, urban design or site planning. This explores urban design techniques to help sites and communities thwart criminals and terrorists. There are plenty of ways to have a safe environment without having to build bunkers or gated communities. Learn how in this course.

It's fine to specialize, but the clients and communities we serve expect us to be smart in all areas of planning. If you feel you should know more about sustainability and open space, consider taking Environmental Planning. This course covers the fundamentals of this important subject, which is taking on more urgency in the wake of global warming and rising energy prices.

If you're already an environmental planner, or a planner working in flood-prone areas, consider taking Avoiding Disasters: Managing Water Resources. This course explores planning techniques to protect wetlands and floodplains.

It takes more than design plans to protect historic resources. Historic Preservation Law will help you build the knowledge and skills to develop regulations that will implement and sustain preservation plans.

Visioning is a fun and creative part of planning. But if the visions can't be implemented, what's the point? Long Range Planning will help you analyze visions to determine what can really be implemented and what amounts to utopian thinking.
