The theme for Black History Month 2022, "February and Forever: Celebrating Black History Today and Every Day," encourages us all to incorporate Black history into our learning and work on a daily basis. In this article, you can find CIP's statement, reflecting on what this means for planning professionals, and a list of resources that can help you learn more about both the history of discriminatory policies in planning and the ways planning can help to create more inclusive communities.

Check out our newest volunteer opportunities, including for our 2022 Continuous Professional Learning Program, Governance Committee,  and CIP-PSTF's Scholarships Jury.

Following a very successful Continuous Professional Learning (CPL) program in 2021, the Canadian Institute of Planners (CIP) is now welcoming webinar and online workshop proposals for the 2022 program.

Join us on February 7, 2022 for our free CPL webinar on Form-Based Code, led by Louis Mazerolle urbaniste, MCIP.

Every Plan Canada issue features a special section, "Fellows' Corner," written by a member of CIP's College of Fellows. Our most recent Fellows' Corner, written by John Steil RPP, FCIP, takes a look at the history of CIP by examining the Institute's Presidents from it's founding through to the present.

CIP is now accepting nominations for President’s Awards in three different categories: Academic, MCIP^®, and Young Planner.

This year, for Fellows Week, CIP is featuring five members of our College of Fellows and highlighting some of their key contributions to the planning profession. CIP is accepting nominations until January 28, 2022 for the honour of Fellow of CIP.

This month's CPL Webinar, Transportation Planning, will take place on December 10 from 1:00 - 2:30 p.m. EST.

On this Giving Tuesday we hope that you will join us in supporting the CIP/ICU Planning Student Trust Fund (CIP-PSTF), the Canadian planning profession’s national charity, which provides a scholarship and bursary program to students in accredited planning programs in Canada.

CIP is now accepting nominations for the honours of Fellow of the Canadian Institute of Planners and Honorary Member of the Canadian Institute of Planners.
