Project for Public Spaces is taking its long-running "Placemaking: Making it Happen” training online, featuring new content along with the enduring lessons and examples from the original in-person training.
Over the course of four weeks, this training will build on participants’ knowledge of placemaking concepts, and provide the tools to implement and manage individual projects. It is mainly geared toward professionals and students who have an understanding of placemaking and are currently working on projects either personally or professionally, however it is open to anyone who has a general interest in placemaking.
During the training we will present and discuss the definitions, concepts, methodologies, and implementations of placemaking and related projects, see footage from multiple sites in the US and abroad to analyze public spaces using a range of our place analysis tools and techniques, and learn from experienced professionals.
Tuesday’s core sessions will be hosted for approximately two hours, with half of the time dedicated to presentations and guest speakers and the other half for breakout discussions and facilitated work sessions. Thursday’s supplemental sessions will showcase special topics with guest speakers as well as networking sessions where attendees can connect with fellow course participants and share their own work, challenges, and ideas.
Weekly assignments will build upon the content of the core sessions and help you apply the tools and concepts discussed during the training to your own work. Relevant articles, guides, and videos will also be made available to supplement your learning.
Registration will open on July 17, 2022.
