CPO Valuation Seminar and Workshop
Valuing
land and property for compulsory purchase compensation is a step into a
hypothetical world – where land is taken, where some land is taken and no land
taken, with its own language and terms - severance and injurious affection -
with potential for ransom, and planning assumptions; and its own set of case
law dictating what valuers are to do.
Valuers are increasingly expected to get their valuation right first
time. This is a thorough review of the valuation
best practice and the underlying methodologies in respect of compulsory
purchase and its compensation.

Understanding Commercial Property Management
Commercial leases are the foundation and essence of property management. Anyone who works in this area needs to be familiar with what they say, what they mean, and how to work them. In this course we explain the key commercial terms of a commercial lease, and focus on the problems the attending delegates have encountered. It is ideal for administrators who have not been trained in the nuances of property - administrators, PA's, secretaries, accounts personnel, facilities managers, newly qualified and APC candidates.

PEBA National Conference 2019
Driving Planning: Hitting the Accelerator and Brake...
2019 is likely to be a significant year for planning and the environment. The ever present issues of Climate Change, Brexit and housing delivery have been given a renewed focus by new policy, evidence and the passing of time. Will the planning system now speed up and produce results? Or will a combination of political, economic and legal hurdles result in a slowing down of delivery by the planning system at a time when progress is needed?
