Colorado Planning Conference

2023 Colorado Planning Conference

September 27 - 29, 2023
Cheyenne Mountain Resort, Colorado Springs

APA Colorado hosts an annual conference in the fall of each year. This conference is the premier learning and networking event for planners in Colorado, offering multiple professional development sessions that are eligible for AICP Certification Maintenance (CM) credits, as well as networking and social events. Each year, the Chapter Board, Local Host Committee and Professional Development Committee aim to provide at least 16 CM credit hours so attendees can get half their required CM credits by attending the state conference sessions, workshops, and mobile tours. Conference attendance varies based on location and economic indicators, but over the last few years attendance has averaged over 375 since 2007, with our highest attendance in 2017 at over 500 attendees. We always appreciate our sponsors who have helped make the event bigger and better each year.

The conference will kick off at 12:30 pm on September 27, 2023. See you there!
