TPS has produced a short note and simple flow chart click here showing how the first cohort of transport planning apprentices can make the next steps in their professional development by joining the TPS PDS.  This provides a pathway to full professional qualification via the TPP. Apprentices are currently entitled to free membership of TPS.

TPS Skills Director, Keith Buchan said:

We want to support all transport planning apprentices in progressing their careers – if they wish to move forward the skills team will do everything they can to help.  The PDS is clearly the next step and they should be ready to join immediately they have successfully completed their in work training. We look forward to welcoming the next generation of transport planners.
