In the following example you can see how you can initiate a dijit/layout/ContentPane and resize it programmatically (on button click).

Basically you need to:

Retrieve your ContentPane using registry.byId().
Change the style property for ContentPane using a dojo setter .set('propertyName', yourValue);

require(["dijit/layout/ContentPane", "dijit/registry", "dijit/form/Button", "dojo/domReady!"], function(ContentPane, registry, Button) {
  new ContentPane({
    content: "<p>Optionally set new content now</p>",
    style: "width: 150px; height:150px; background-color:yellow;"
  }, "panelContent").startup();
  var myButton = new Button({
    label: "Click me to enlarge the panel!",
    onClick: function() {
      registry.byId("panelContent").set('style','width: 350px; background-color:red;')
    }
  }, "button").startup();

});

<link rel="stylesheet" href="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/dojo/1.12.1/dijit/themes/claro/claro.css" />

<script>
  window.dojoConfig = {
    parseOnLoad: false,
    async: true
  };
</script>

<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/dojo/1.10.1/dojo/dojo.js">
</script>

<body class="claro">
  <div id="panelContent" data-dojo-type="dijit/layout/ContentPane">
    Hi, pretty boring huh?
  </div>
  <button id="button" type="button"></button>
</body>

Interesting , also dojox.layout.ResizeHandle would be for instante resizing , (despite its in experimental version not official package ) — Bourbia Brahim, Jun 16 '17 at 00:02
@bRIMOs thanks for sharing. I have tried your snippet for `dojox/layout/ResizeHandle` but unfortunately does not work on Chrome Version 58.0.3029.110 (64-bit) and works on FireFox 54.0 (64-bit). I suppose it is a bug on `ResizeHandle`. Could you reproduce this issue? Once again thanks. — GibboK, Jun 16 '17 at 06:47

This can be achieved by using the dojo ResizeHandler , so the setps to use it are :

import the dojox/layout/ResizeHandle
Import the resize hander Css Style ( for rendering and resize icon )
set your resizable div poristion to relative
instantiate the rsizeHandler and set target to your div id

so the instantiation would be like :

var handle = new ResizeHandle({
      targetId:"panelContent"
  }).placeAt("panelContent");

you can find bellow a working snippet

require([
  "dojox/layout/ResizeHandle",
  "dojo/dnd/move",
  'dojo/dom',
  'dojo/domReady!'
], function(ResizeHandle, dojoDnd, Dom) {

  new dojoDnd.parentConstrainedMoveable(Dom.byId("panelContent"),                 {
                    handle: this.focusNode,
                    area: "content",
                    within: true
                })

  var handle = new ResizeHandle({
      targetId:"panelContent"
  }).placeAt("panelContent");
  

});

#panelContent {
  background-color:green;
  position:relative;
  width:200px;
  height:100px;
  cursor:pointer;
}

body,html,#container {
  width:100%;
  height:100%;
}

<script>
  window.dojoConfig = {
    parseOnLoad: false,
    async: true
  };
</script>


<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/dojo/1.9.1/dojo/dojo.js"></script>

<div id="container" class="claro">
  <div id="panelContent">
    <div id="handler"></div>
  </div>
</div>
