Each year the California Chapter provides a Statewide Conference to provide networking and educational opportunities for its members. These popular conferences attract planning professionals from all over California, the United States and the world. Conferences typically include an opening reception in a special venue, keynote speakers, concurrent tracks of programs and seminars including practical "nuts and bolts" sessions, mobile workshops to local planning related venues, the CCAPA Awards Dinner, and the California Planning Foundation Auction to fund scholarships for planning students.
