New online series: Smart conversations about planning issues

The Professional Development Institute is launching a new online learning series: Smart Conversations. Every Smart Conversation will be an interactive interview with a leading practitioner or expert researcher on current topics in community development and social justice, economic development and real estate, planning law and legal issues, professional practice, smart growth and sustainable development, or urban design and placemaking.

Similar to a call-in radio program (but at a more sophisticated level), Smart Conversations will allow you to ask questions or offer comments on the subject.

Our first Smart Conversation is "Housing Market Critical Indicators: What Planners Should Know," with Deborah Brett, AICP. It's on September 3, from 4 to 5 pm. It's free. Learn more or register here.
