Boost Your Career in Property or Development

Planners are in demand in most urban and regional centres across Australia, in both the public and private sectors.

The Graduate Certificate in Development Planning is the only online planning course of its type in Australia. It's ideal if you:

• want to play a pivotal role in shaping local communities
• are considering a career in urban planning
• are a working planner looking to undertake mid-career training
• want to complement your existing skills in real estate or valuation
• are pursuing a career in property development

The course provides you with a good all-round understanding of how planning works and the environmental, social and design issues planners should be aware of.
