The AEC industry stands at a crossroads. As it seeks to address pressing challenges, such as sustainability and infrastructure demands, it must also prioritize DEI.

"Architecture is a profession that requires continuous learning and unlearning. Never hesitate to ask questions; staying curious is essential to growth in the field." 💡🌱 In a recent NCARB Blog, DC-based project architect Kumi Wickramanayaka shared how she kept up momentum on the licensure path. 🔗https://ow.ly/TSgw50TosFR ❓Question for architects: what kept you motivated on your licensure journey?

NCARB introduced a new framework for architectural licensure in the U.S. today, the 'NCARB Competency Standard for Architects.' It outlines 16 key competencies required at licensure. NCARB President Kenneth R. Van Tine noted the new standard will "shape the architecture profession for years to come and ensure that the path to licensure is accessible to individuals of all backgrounds." Take a deep dive into the topic of architectural licensure with our recent Archinect In-Depth: Licensure series (link in the article).

Our director M. Hank Haeusler contributed to the NSW Architects Registration Board - Deep Dive Report on Systemic Risks in the Australian Architecture Sector. It consolidates the results of initial research undertaken by the NSW ARB and ARBV in 2022 with insights about these risks gleaned from deep dive focus groups conducted in 2023 with NSW and Victorian architects, industry body representatives, clients, developers, insurers and regulatory bodies. The Deep Dive Report identifies systemic risks in the Australian architecture sector that affect the entire industry. Without effective action, these risks could lead to widespread negative outcomes. Given their systemic nature, addressing these risks requires a coordinated response involving not only the NSW ARB and ARBV, but also industry bodies, education providers, research institutions and other government agencies. The Deep Dive Report offers recommendations so that outcomes can be improved for architects, their clients, users of architectural services and the public.
