The FPD Training Workshop delivers 500+ federal planners, as well as state, local, and commercial planners every year who are looking to expand their skills, earn AICP Certification Maintenance (CM) credits, and connect with industry and technical experts learn about their solutions and services.

The Training Workshop is an exclusive opportunity for federal contractors to reach planning professionals from around the world, build company awareness and thought leadership, support the federal planning community, and learn about the needs and challenges faced by planners across the federal, state, and local government sectors.
