Our byte-size courses are half-day sessions delivered on Microsoft Teams from 9:30 to 12:00.
Navigating the complexities of planning law and practice can be challenging, but getting it right is essential to uphold the integrity of the planning system as a whole. These short courses are designed specifically for local authority professionals, providing clear, practical insights into key planning principles, topic based issues and enforcement powers.
Through real world case studies and expert-led discussions, participants will gain the knowledge and confidence to handle difficult issues effectively. Whether you're new to development management or enforcement, these courses will equip you with the tools to make informed, legally sound decisions in your role.
Statutory BNG seeks to create and improve the natural environment by requiring all new development to have a net gain on biodiversity. This session explains the guidance on monitoring and enforcing BNG for on-site gain. We also set out how to define potential breaches of planning control, consider expediency and the type of enforcement action LPAs can take. The course is aimed at planning enforcement officers and development management officers who want to ensure BNG is delivered.
