To coincide with World Urbanism Day this event hears from a selection of RTPI apprentices who reflect on their experience as an apprentice and their aspirations for their careers to encourage others to consider the apprenticeship route into the profession.
Aimed at school and college leavers this event introduces the apprenticeship route as an entry into the profession by providing experiences of current apprentices. The event will also focus on the motivations behind wanting to go into the planning and the aspirations apprentices’ have to shape the word in which we live.
