Who we are

The Young Architects Forum (YAF), a program of the American Institute of Architects (AIA) and the College of Fellows (COF), is organized to address issues of particular importance to recently licensed architects.

FAQ: What is a young architect and what is an emerging professional? Young architects are architects licensed up to ten years of initial licensure, and the name does not have any relationship to age. Emerging professionals are professionals who have completed their academic studies up to the point of licensure or up to 10 years after completion of their academic studies. Although young architects are now defined as distinct from emerging professionals, many components refer to these groups similarly. For example, a local YAF group may include emerging professionals and a local Emerging Professionals Committee may include young architects.

    This message has been cross posted to the following Discussion Forums: Young Architects Forum and K-12 Architectural Education and Outreach .
    -------------------------------------------


    Due to lower-than-anticipated registration, we regret to inform you that the 2014 AIA Multicultural Summit: The Many Voices of Architecture has been postponed. While this is not our preferred course of action, we have agreed that postponing now provides us with the opportunity to restructure this endeavor in a manner that will lead to greater engagement from our intended audience and provide better value to attendees and speakers.


    The planning committee is set to brainstorm next steps over the coming weeks, including how to retool the content.


    Thank you for your interest, and stay tuned this fall for updates.
