If you’re still unsure, below are answers to frequently asked questions about the course.
Q: I don’t have a design, ecology or sustainability background - is this course for me?
A: The course is interdisciplinary in nature so we expect participants to come from a variety of backgrounds. You don’t need to have any specific knowledge beforehand but some experience of working in the built environment and development sectors would be advantageous. The course is ideal for architects, planners, landscape architects, urban designers, developers and policy makers.
Q: I already have experience in masterplanning - will I learn anything new?
A: Absolutely. You can expect to learn a refreshingly different approach to design that will encourage you to break from status quo, unsustainable development patterns. This is not just generic urban design advice. The course builds on decades of best practice and research and shows you how to apply it to real development sites.
Q: Is the course delivered live or through pre-recorded videos?
A: The course is delivered entirely through live video conferencing via Teams. There is no pre-recorded content but you will get access to the event recordings afterwards. The course starts on 22 May with live sessions on every Thursday 1-4pm (UK time) for six weeks.
Q: Do I need to show up to the live sessions?
A: Ideally, yes! The course is designed to be highly interactive and to give you opportunities to learn through doing and connect with other students. If you miss any live sessions, you can catch up by watching the recording afterwards but we advise you to attend as many live sessions as possible.
Q: How many other participants will be taking the course?
A: Enrolment is capped at 36 participants. This ensures manageable group sizes for group activities and allows the tutors to give enough attention to everyone.
