Crime Prevention through Environmental Design (CPTED) is based on the principle that designing a physical environment that positively influences human behavior can prevent crime and promote businesses. CPTED is based on four principles: natural access control, natural surveillance, territoriality and maintenance. CPTED is a recognized and cost effective crime prevention strategy. Learning and applying these strategies can help organizations increase safety, raise the value of properties and reduce insurance costs. It can assist in reclaiming entire neighborhoods or areas from blight and crime. Who Should Attend: CPTED strategies are ideal for law enforcement officers, city planners, city government officials, architects/engineers, landscape architects, hospitals, real estate agents and anyone involved in economic and neighborhood redevelopment.
