APPI Edmonton Event - Open Mic Luncheon

Tuesday, September 13 at the Faculty Club, University of Alberta, 2nd Floor Papaschase Room

11:30 AM arrive and eat, sandwich salad buffet
12:00 - 1:00 PM presentation

Join APPI for a fun lunch and networking with other Planners from the area. To spice things up we ask that you come prepared to take the mic and tell the room in two minutes what is happening in your professional world. Alternately you can come prepared with a scenario you would like feedback on from your peers. This format is very similar to the APPI virtual coffee breaks, just in person and with food!

This event qualifies for 1.0 structured learning unit.

Urban Design Review Panel

APPI thanks all interested members for their willingness to represent their professional institute, and Calgary City Council has expressed a desire to receive multiple nominations for these positions.  The final selection of appointees will be made by Calgary City Council.

APPI is committed to equity, diversity and inclusion on positions of influence and leadership within the Institute. As such, APPI welcomes volunteers from individuals who identify as First Nations, Inuit, Métis, LGBTQ2S+, persons with disabilities, women and other equity deserving groups.  

Reminder APPI and CIP Member Services

As part of our commitment to providing greater impact and value to our members, we have been working hard with CIP on transitioning to a new member services database. The new system will provide APPI members with a much-improved and refined user experience.

As a result, a number of online member services will temporarily be unavailable from August 14 to November 1, 2022. APPI staff will be on hand to help during this transition.

As of August 14, the CIP member login page will be updated with a detailed list of Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) to address specific services affected by the transition and ways that CIP will support members. 

Thank you for your patience during this time. We are looking forward to the new system and know that it will be well worth the wait! In the meantime, if you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to CIP at [email protected] or APPI at [email protected].

APPI will continue to update your contact information in the new system, so please continue to send your updates to [email protected].

Ensure your contact information is current, both home and employer information. Notify the APPI office if you have made any moves and we will update your APPI and CIP profiles for you. Click here for the Change of Contact Form.
