Registration now open for 2014 Certification in Creative Placemaking program

By Leonardo Vazquez, AICP/PP

You can now register for the 2014 Certification in Creative Placemaking program offered by The Ohio State University's City and Regional Planning section.  This is the only program in the United States of its kind in the growing field of creative placemaking.

In this 10-month, online program, continuing education and graduate students together learn about issues of community development, economic development, complex analysis, capacity building, site planning, and place marketing.  Students participate in entrepreneurial leadership sessions go help them become more influential and effective.  Finally, every student works on a creative placemaking issue in a community of his or her choice.


We want you to do more than just learn about creative placemaking.  We want to help you become
successful.

Anyone who has an interest in public affairs and the arts can succeed in this challenging program -- if they're willing to put in the effort.

Tuition for the program is $3,250.  We are offering an early-bird discount of $250 to anyone who registers by March 31.  Most of the readings are free.  The only books we assign are ones you will want to keep with you.

Never taken an online class?  No problem.  We will give you plenty of time to get comfortable with OSU's online learning management system.

This is the second year of the program, which was designed by The National Consortium for Creative Placemaking.
