520			_aExamines the opportunities for planners in the regeneration sector and looks at the skills required in both professions. Suggests that planners have a range of transferable skills that qualify them to work in regeneration, and looks at how the RTPI is promoting closer links between planning and regeneration. Highlights the key skills and knowledge required to work on regeneration projects such as the ability to work in a partnership environment and in the political arena, an understanding of the regeneration process, and the experience of working with community groups and organising physical change in space. Concludes that the regeneration market holds many opportunities for planners, without the need for a new career path, and that the transfer of skills between both professions should be encouraged.
