Workshop Topics
The goal of the training is to provide a refresher to those who develop and review Act 38 NMPs and NBSs. This class is for those who feel a bit out of touch when working with plans and planning tools. More seasoned planners and reviewers may attend with hopes of picking up some good tips that will make their plan-related processes more efficient.
