In
response to the LI’s recent talent report, The
Future State of Landscape, the Landscape Institute is running a
full programme of CPD and specialist events throughout the coming year.
Taking
place in regions across the UK, the programme will address a range of topics
crucial to landscape practice and practitioners. Key events will also be
live-streamed, meaning more people than ever before can access this world-class
training content.
Continuing
professional development, or CPD, is a crucial aspect of professional body
membership.
The
LI asks all corporate members to complete a minimum of 25 hours’ CPD activity
per year. This is to help members uphold the highest standards of
professional competence and knowledge.
LI
CPD days are an excellent and affordable way for LI members and
landscape-related professionals to develop their professional knowledge and
expertise. The cost of attendance includes lunch, refreshments and networking
opportunities.
