WMAIA is pleased to continue our Friday lunchtime series for our region’s Emerging Professionals. Each of these noontime gatherings will focus on a specific topic but will also allow time for questions and general discussion – including licensing info, grant opportunities and input on future topics.
Any architecture student, recent graduate or architect licensed less than ten years (per the AIA’s definition of Emerging Professionals) is welcomed to participate in the events hosted by the WMAIA that provide EPs with facilitated access to resources tailored toward professional development.
These programs are free but you must register here to receive the Zoom link.
