Following the success of a session TPS organised at last year's European Transport Conference we are calling for contributions for a roundtable discussion on: ‘Growing and improving transport planning skills in Europe’.

Our call is:

Following our Special Session on this topic last year, we invite transport practitioners and academics from across Europe to share how transport planning is regarded and structured in your country/region, how skills are developed and recognized, and your thoughts on how transport planning could be improved through better (international) collaboration, networking, training and skills development. This might include who identifies as a transport planner, what a transport planner does in each country, other professions that are engaged in transport planning, relevant university courses available, resources for further professional development, and the need for or absence of professional recognition.

The full call is available for download here

The session would be approximately two hours and we would welcome panelists to share thoughts on the above topic with the audience and then discuss this with the other panel members. There is no need for a formal presentation or paper to be submitted, although we may request some written notes after the event for reporting purposes.

We welcome expressions of interest from practitioners, academics, researchers, and anyone else with an interest in the development of transport planning skills in Europe. And we would be happy to discuss further if you have any queries. Please contact us at info@tps.org.uk.
