    This video was shown at grassroots, and was the first rough draft of repositioning the AIA. This was done to distill a message but the presentation preceding it was a blunt critique of the structure of the organization and how to restructure focusing on member value. It is over an hour, but worth a watch: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x22D0po1h5Y

    I am being denied to take the A.R.E..

    Yet I work with clients doing a variety of projects which is primarily residential.

    I have over 6 years of experience.

    I have passed a national test that determines my skill, knowledge and ability to teach architectural studies.

    I routinely work under the direct supervision of architects for all aspects of architectural projects.

    I have completed IDP as of February 2010.

    Why am I being denied eligibility?

    ps – I was recently told by a local Pittsburgh principal architect that at 55 I am too old to be considered for hire.

    You might as well wipe your arse with the AIA Canons and Ethics Rules.
