FAQ
Q. I only want to register for the first course: Fundamentals of P2/Engagement.
A. We encourage all interested participants to register for the full Certificate in P2. You may, however, choose to register for the Fundamentals Level 1 course only.
Q. I have IAP2 Planning for Effective Public Participation training already. What new course would be the logical choice to supplement this learning?
A: Rather than complete the prerequisite Fundamentals of P2/Engagement course to access the Global Learning Pathway courses, you will be required to watch a Transition bridge video before registering for any other IAP2 courses. Following that, you may register for and take Applying Methods to receive your certificate. Watch the Transition Video here.
