IDP/ARE Panel & Speed Mentoring

Hi CED Architecture folks—AIA East Bay has two programs coming up that would be very good for Architecture Majors (undergrad and grad) to attend. One is a panel of recently licensed architects who will talk about the IDP & ARE; the other is a speed mentoring program. See below for details—it would be great if you might spread the word. Lots of CED alumni will be at both.

IDP & the ARE: Weathering the Storm
A YAF/EPC Panel Discussion
Tuesday, March 20 
6pm 

Let's face it, getting an architectural license is hard. There's paperwork, bureaucracy, expenses, time-all in addition to studying and proving that you have the right stuff to be an architect.

Come to AIA East Bay on Tuesday, March 20th to hear how recently licensed architects (and one soon to be) made it through the storm (relatively) unscathed. How did they do it? They'll talk about the study process, ways to use IDP as a career tool, motivational tips, plus-is there a rainbow at the end of the storm?

Panelists:
Jamie Brown, AIA,
Gray Dougherty, AIA
Nate Dison, AIA
Deepika Padam, AIA
Bryan Rayburn, Assoc. AIA
Manan Shah, AIA
Jeremiah Tolbert, AIA
Phoebe Wong, AIA
Moderator: Mylanie Ventanilla, Assoc. AIA


Hosted by the Emerging Professionals Committee (EPC) and Young Architects Forum (YAF)



Speed Mentoring
Tuesday, April 3
6-7:30pm 
 
Come together for a fast-paced, no-commitment program of speed mentoring. Here protégés will benefit from quick-hit information, time-efficient mentoring, and the opportunity to network with architects and experienced design professionals.  

A casual reception follows the speed mentoring program to allow for continuation of conversations that might have ended too soon.  

Presented by the Emerging Professionals Committee (EPC).
