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 Repositioning the Architect .
    -------------------------------------------
    As most of you know, the AIA Repositioning Effort includes "The Change Network" and "The Culture Collective." I am a member of both and the nominal leader of a subgroup called "Group 7." Group 7 is looking for some volunteers to participate in an intensive three month investigation of one possible AIA Repositioning Strategy. Please see the attached invitation. This invitation also includes information on another of the Subgroups. Please feel free to contact them also or instead. We need as many participants as possible to make this an effective process. Thank you for your attention. ------------------------------------------- Mike Mense FAIA Owner mmenseArchitects Anchorage AK -------------------------------------------
