EDLA offer Landscape CPDs to architects, planners, ecologists on LVIA

Over the past few months, EDLA have been getting numerous requests to give CPDs to practices, specifically relating to LVIA.  So we have created one specifically for architects and planning consultants.

Within the LVIA CPDs, we discuss the process, and talk through a couple of case studies. LVIA is often described as a ‘dark art’ but it isn’t.  In the CPD, we will demonstrate the benefit of involving landscape architects early in the development process (whether us or another). We can advise strategically on mitigation, sensitivity of different parts of the site, capacity and building heights (where relevant) from the outset so that time and resources are not wasted in the longer term.

The fact that 90% of our projects gain planning approval demonstrates that an LVIA – evidence based approach is of value. (Of course, we can’t take all the credit for this high success rate as we work within strong teams and with clients who value our work and bring us in early.)

If a CPD on LVIA would be of interest to you and your team, do get in touch. We are very happy to spend the time explaining the process and its value.
