At some point, we all ask the question: What does good engagement actually look like? Not just busy meetings or well-crafted surveys — but real, honest, two-way conversations that change things. That’s exactly where this course begins. Fundamentals of P2/Engagement is the starting point for anyone on IAP2’s Global Learning Pathway.

You’ve got a plan. Now what? Time to choose your methods.
It’s one thing to know why engagement matters. It’s another to pick the right tool and bring it to life.
That’s where Applying Methods comes in.
This course is for practitioners ready to roll up their sleeves — the facilitators, coordinators, and team members tasked with actually making engagement happen. If you’ve ever asked Which method do I use? or How do I design this to work for everyone in the room? This is your space to figure it out.

You’re Not “Just” Supporting the Process — You’re Shaping It
If you’re not the one leading the engagement — but it’s impacting your work and you play a part in the success of engagement – this course is for you.
Planners, policy analysts, engineers, communications staff, consultants, executive directors — so many professionals touch engagement without necessarily calling it their core job. But here’s the truth: whether you’re reviewing the plan, setting the timeline, managing the contract, or reporting to leadership, your choices can either open up space for meaningful public engagement… or unintentionally close it off.
