CPP is an indication that an individual has met set standards in qualification and experience, and is committed to high standards of ethical professional practice in planning. The CPP scheme is a nationally-consisted benchmark across the disciplines of urban and regional planning, social planning, urban design, transport planning, economic development, environmental planning and planning law.
