At Go4, we don’t do generic planning training. We take the real stuff — enforcement challenges, tricky cases, and appeal-proof reasoning — and turn it into practical, engaging learning that sticks. When you understand how decisions hold up under scrutiny, everything becomes clearer: your reports, your investigations, and your confidence.
We support councils in building strong, resilient planning and enforcement services. Our training is grounded in real investigations, case strategy, and planning inspectorate insight, helping officers make clear, defensible decisions that withstand scrutiny.
We understand the pressures on local authorities: high caseloads, public expectations, political sensitivity, and resource constraints. Our programmes are designed to strengthen capability, improve workflow, and support officers at every level.
The result is a more confident, aligned, and effective planning service.
Go4 provides specialist training and coaching for developers, consultants, and landowners who want to navigate the planning system with clarity and confidence. Our enforcement-led insight helps you understand risk, anticipate issues, and prepare robust, well-reasoned submissions that stand up to scrutiny.
We translate complex planning requirements into clear, practical guidance tailored to your projects.
We help you make informed decisions, reduce uncertainty, and strengthen your position in the planning process.
A dedicated training space is launching soon to support workshops, coaching sessions, and practical planning development programmes.
