Purpose:
This course is an introduction to master planning principles, processes, and products as prescribed in UFC 2-100-01, Master Planning. The purpose of the course is to make planners more effective by providing them an overview of the fundamentals of master planning as it is practiced by the Army and other DoD and federal agencies as well as by local cities and towns. For non-planners, this course provides an overview of the fundamentals of master planning. General planning principles covered in this course apply to the U.S. Army Reserves and other military services, the Civil Works Community, other Government agencies, and the civilian planning community. Participants should be aware that this course is focused on planning and not programming DD 1391 preparation and the design and construction of facilities. Since planning defines what is to be programmed, it is essential that programmers understand how the planning process is formulated, its integration with NEPA process, its consideration of sustainability and energy factors, and how the process guides all development.
Description:
Through lectures, case studies, group interaction, field trips and practical exercises, this course will (a) provide an overview of fundamental strategies for resilient, sustainable and energy efficient master plans cited in Army and DoD Master Planning policies; (b) present the planning process, methodology, and products used to create effective master plans and explain how the process is applied to installation master planning; (c) emphasize that master planning is a professional capability requiring close collaboration and facilitation with stakeholders, and (d) present an overview of sustainable development concepts. This class provides the fundamentals of the practice of planning and gives students the foundational understanding needed to engage in effective master planning of installations and federal properties. A half-day field trip is part of the schedule so students should be prepared to walk and they should plan to wear appropriate and comfortable attire. Accommodations for students unable to walk will be made as needed, please contact ULC prior to the course if accommodations are needed. Students need to bring a laptop to the course. To receive a certificate of completion, students are required to attend the entire course so leaving early is not allowed by ULC policy.
Prerequisites:
This course has no prerequisite. It is appropriate for planners, architects, landscape architects, project managers, engineers, historic preservation experts, and Real Property Specialists working at Army and DoD installations, Corps of Engineers districts, NASA centers, other federal agencies, the general public, and the consulting community.
