FCPTI Advanced Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) Course – November 2023

Course Description

The Advanced Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) course offered by the Florida Attorney General’s Office is designed for individuals who have completed the Basic CPTED or 5-day CPTED for Schools class which includes plan review, report writing, lighting, zoning, behavioral management, etc. Advanced CPTED will expand upon the Basic CPTED / 5-day CPTED for Schools course by incorporating new topics including public art, CPTED in parks, comfort station design, terror mitigation, and public transportation. Special emphasis will be placed on city ordinances and codes, along with design reviews, report writing, and presentation skills. Lighting in relationship to the physical environment and the use of colors in behavioral management will be discussed. This is a “hands on” course which requires a basic understanding of CPTED concepts. Working exercises will be conducted throughout the three days in both the classroom and the field. Student participation is a must in order to successfully complete the class. Class participants will complete a working exercise that will incorporate a CPTED photometric lighting survey.
