We offer a growing number of free online courses and webinars, covering the work of Christopher Alexander, pattern languages, wikis, sustainable urbanism, and other topics. We have also partnered with other institutions to offer courses for credit, including Oxford University (the sustainable urbanism Master's programme, which was an outgrowth of our curriculum development at The Prince's Foundation) and Arizona State University (PUP-SOS 465-565, Sustainable Urbanism, taught by Michael Mehaffy in the School of Geographic Sciences and Urban Planning, for enrolled students).
