Alberta
professional planners unveil new name and professional
designation
July 14, 2010
We are pleased to
announce that our organization, formerly the Alberta
Association, Canadian Institute of Planners (AACIP), has
received approval of its new regulation, designation, and its
name change to the Alberta Professional Planners Institute (APPI).
Alberta’s Lieutenant Governor in Council officially sanctioned
the changes under the new Professional Planner Regulation
under the Professional and Occupational Associations
Registration Act.
The announcement makes official
the new Alberta Professional Planners
regulation and the new Institute bylaws, which replace the
existing Alberta Community Planner regulation and AACIP bylaws. The changes
include the designation used by full members from Alberta
Community Planner (ACP) to Registered Professional Planner (RPP).
APPI is the professional association that serves a membership
of over 800 private and public sector planners and academics
practicing in Alberta, the Northwest Territories and
Nunavut. APPI supports its members as leaders of community
planning and is committed to the development of professional
planners, promotion of the planning profession and serves as
an advocate for community planning. APPI is an affiliate of
the Canadian Institute of Planners (CIP).
The email and web site will
remain
aacip@aacip.com and
www.aacip.com until the new web site and email is ready.
Should
you have any questions about the name or designation change,
or membership requirements please contact the APPI office at
780.435.8716
