The University of Connecticut Center for Land Use Education and Research's Land Use Academy provides education for local land use commissioners on the basic skills needed to support sound decision making. The core course covers roles and responsibilities of commissions, legal requirements and map reading. The Academy is a made-in-Connecticut-for-Connecticut educational program. [Learn More]
The Land Use Academy “basic training” is comprised of three courses offered in a one-day workshop: Roles and Responsibilities, Legal Requirements and Map Reading. Commissioners who complete all three courses earn a certificate to document their commitment to better land use decision making.
Provides online resources such as podcasts, video lectures, and exercises for those who want a quick refresher or are unable to attend our training.
Connect yourself to a wide range of additional educational materials and services provided by the Center for Land Use Education and Research (CLEAR) and other Land Use Academy partners.
Our advanced training Academy held on November 5 was a huge success. As a result, we are currently planning another advanced training for some time in March, 2012. For details, contact the Academy directly or sign up for our mailing list (below) to get email updates on upcoming trainings.
The Advanced Land Use Academy training is a departure from the Basic Training that we usually offer. In response to feedback from both professional planners and land use commissioners, we are offering an all-day advanced course that will cover three topics in-depth. This training will include plenty of time for audience participation, questions, observations, etc.
