Recap of AIA Oregon October 18, 2019 Strategic Initiative Planning Retreat

The members of AIA in Oregon began a process focused on improved member services through all parts of the state in 2013.  This led to the Report on the Formation of a Single Oregon State Chapter Transition plan in early 2017, and ultimately the realignment to a single chapter – AIA Oregon beginning January 1, 2019.  Throughout the process, AIA leadership, through multiple strategic planning retreats developed a series of four strategic initiatives that guide the Board.

The AIA Oregon Board and Leadership Team met in Portland on October 18, 2019 and identified the specific plan for progressing the four strategic initiatives:

  • Elevate the Member Experience

  • Enhance Professional Development

  • Improve Our Communities

  • Adapt to the Changing Profession
