AIA Oregon Awarded AIA College of Fellows 2019 Grant for Emerging Professionals

(From August 22, 2019)

AIA Oregon has recently been awarded the AIA College of Fellows 2019 Component Grant for Emerging Professionals. Our AIA chapter was awarded his grant to assist with developing the network of emerging professionals across the state and providing equitable benefits to AIA and AIA Associates that fit the definition of an emerging professional.

Are you an emerging professional? The AIA uses the term "emerging professional" to refer to the diverse group of individuals working toward architectural licensure and those recently licensed. This includes recent graduates, those working on licensure, and architects licensed 10 years or less.
