Corey D., Architect & Transportation Planner
I can't believe how much I've learned just from these online courses. It's a really great introduction to concepts, with exercises that help you contextualize the learnings.
Lissie R.
Excellent course subject matter you can't find anywhere else, presented by leaders in the industry.
William H., New Urbanist Consultant
I love the variety of courses, many practical, and all richly illustrated. They have inspired many ideas that I've applied in practice, and in my own teaching. While I tend to engage fully in the courses, and focus mainly on areas where I have an established interest and some expertise, Planetizen Courses provide an option of delving into entirely new areas in which I have no expertise whatsoever, with little risk.
