Registration open for Certification in Creative Placemaking Program; Learn more at an information session

By Leonardo Vazquez

Creative placemaking is a fast-growing field in the arts, community and economic development, and urban planning and policy. NCCP and Ohio State University offer one of the most distinct, comprehensive and challenging continuing education programs in this field.

The Certification in Creative Placemaking offers you much more than training. Our 10-month program helps you build a deep knowledge set for creative placemaking, develop your leadership and strategic communication skills, and share ideas with other smart professionals and students. You will learn from top creative placemaking professionals in the United States.

This program is convenient -- entirely online and no required meetings. (Though you'll probably want to join your classmates in videoconferences and get-togethers.) Graduate students can get three credits and, for AICP members, we will be requesting 18-28 CM credits.

The program has attracted artists, arts administrators, urban planners, government professionals, policy professionals and others from throughout the United States, Colombia, Egypt, New Zealand and The Philippines.

About The National Consortium for Creative Placemaking

The National Consortium for Creative Placemaking (NCCP) was created to build capacity for sustainable and cost-effective creative placemaking.

Creative placemaking is a new way of making communities more livable and prosperous through the arts, and making them better places for the arts. Creative placemaking is about more than public art or performing arts centers. It is about making places better for everyone.

NCCP provides community coaching, practical research and thought leadership to help cultural and civic leaders build their capacity to do creative placemaking... better

How we add value

The National Consortium provides a wide variety of services in four areas:

Community coaching -- Through this program, we help teams of community stakeholders build clear and cost-effective strategies for creative placemaking, and strengthen their abilities to implement their strategies.

Continuing education -- We provide in-person and online training and learning in creative placemaking. We created the innovative and respected Certificate in Creative Placemaking at New Hampshire Institute of Art.

Thought leadership -- We promote high quality creative placemaking in multiple ways -- from the strategically placed op-ed, to the podium on the stage, to the quiet conversation with key influencers.

Creative Placemaking planning -- We provide a wide range of planning services to strengthen your plan. NCCP works in partnership with the Nishuane Group, which specializes in resolving land use and economic development issues.

We'll have more information on our services soon. Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions.
