Welcome to the APA New Mexico Chapter Website What's On And Poppin' at APA-NM
At the request of our Chapter President, please review the survey information below. Thank you in advance!
APANM Survey for Planning Professionals: Preparing Planners for Entry-Level Planning Positions
Survey opens: Sunday 10 September 2023 at 9 pm
Survey closes: Monday 18 September 2023 at 9 pm
*Feel free to complete the survey after 18 September--until 25 September--but would appreciate responses by the 18th.
This survey is intended for those planners who are involved in the hiring (in any capacity) of entry-level planners. The intent of this survey is to better understand what attributes and skills professional planners are looking for when hiring entry-level planners. NOTE: No distinction has been made between undergraduate and graduate students in this survey because we are looking for what practitioners are looking for when hiring an entry-level planner, regardless of degree.
APANM will share the results of this survey with UNM CRP, and I will present initial results at the Western Planner Conference 2023 attendees. Additionally, based on the results of this survey there might be additional outreach to you to complete additional survey or with a request for more information.
At the end of the survey, please let us know if you would like to receive results of the survey. The survey results will be posted to the APANM website: https://newmexico.planning.org
There are 20 questions in this survey (along with opportunities to add additional comments/thoughts), divided into the following sections:
1: Skills & Knowledge
2: Internships
3: AICP
4: Practitioner Advice to planning programs
5: Questions About You [your group (e.g., firm, organization, agency)]
I appreciate you taking the time to complete this survey!*
Best,
joni m palmer, President, APANM
