What if your classroom was a vibrant city filled with real-world CPTED examples? In 2026, the National Institute of Crime Prevention (NICP) invites you to Tampa, Florida—home to nationally recognized CPTED projects—for a one-of-a-kind immersive learning experience with Art Hushen, Founder of NICP.
The Applied CPTED in Tampa Workshop blends classroom instruction, field-based learning, and peer collaboration in an intimate, small-group format. Limited to just 20 participants, this workshop ensures direct access to Art’s expertise while also drawing on the experiences of your fellow attendees.
What Makes This Workshop Different
This isn’t a typical training course, it’s a complete professional development experience designed to engage both your mind and your senses.
- Immersive Tampa Experience – Explore the Tampa Riverwalk on a guided CPTED walking tour, and enjoy a group dinner at the historic Columbia Restaurant in Ybor City.
- Hands-On Learning – Participate in a real-world lighting survey using your own ExTech NIST-certified light meter (yours to keep), guided by NICP’s CPTED Lighting Survey Field Guide.
- Exclusive Access – Share your projects during roundtable discussions and walk away with actionable strategies tailored to your community.
- All-Inclusive Package – Registration covers hotel accommodations, meals, excursions, course materials, and transportation for scheduled activities.
Professional Growth – Earn 16 hours of Continuing Education Credits, fulfilling the renewal requirement for the CPTED Professional Designation (CPD).
Why It’s Worth It
The Tampa Workshop is designed for professionals who want more than a class. It’s about seeing CPTED in action, practicing with tools, and leaving with strategies you can apply immediately. Along the way, you’ll connect with a small network of peers equally committed to creating safer, stronger communities.
Investment in Your Growth
The registration fee for the Applied CPTED in Tampa Workshop is $2,495. While this is higher than NICP’s traditional courses, the pricing reflects the all-inclusive format, premium materials, exclusive small-group access, and immersive Tampa experience that set this workshop apart.
