The AIBC’s Continuing Education System (CES) was introduced in 2001 in response to the profession’s recognition of its own needs and the public’s increasing expectation that architects remain current with contemporary technology, business practices, methods and materials.
The requirement to comply with the CES was adopted as AIBC Bylaw 30.2, by member vote at the 2001 AIBC Annual Meeting and approved thereafter by the provincial government.
All architects and architectural technologists are required to earn 36 Learning Units every two years, consisting of “Core” and “Non-core” units as designated by the AIBC. The current CES reporting period covers July 1, 2018 – June 30, 2020.
The AIBC is committed to the success of CES Participants in completing their educational requirements, through provision of:
- AIBC Courses;
- Recognized Educational Provider (REP) Program;
- AIBC Annual Conference;
- Access to additional PD activities.
Please consult the AIBC Calendar for a comprehensive listing of CES and other course programming.
Refer to “Frequently Asked Questions” for more detailed information.
