Designing Your Future

Overview

To strengthen the relevance of continuing professional education, AIA/CES provides you with Designing Your Future- a collection of curriculum frameworks developed to provide a pathway of learning for architects interested in advancing their professional knowledge, skills and abilities. The curriculum frameworks mark the beginning of an ongoing effort of AIA Continuing Education (CE) to provide meaningful structure to architectural professional development and education. Each curriculum framework provides guidelines for selecting continuing professional education for career development. We encourage you to personalize the application to focus on your individual needs and interests.
