In a recent webinar, our panel of architects, advisors, and a current licensure candidate provided valuable insight into the process of gaining real-world experience at an architecture firm and successfully fulfilling the experience requirements. The architects on the panel recounted their own paths, sharing key tips and strategies they used to maximize their time in the field to make steady progress towards licensure goals.
During the webinar, our panelists— Gensler Firmwide Emerging Talent Program Manager Kimberly Tuttle, AIA, NCARB, NOMA, CAE; American Institute of Architecture Students (AIAS) President Colt Brock, AIAS, NOMA, Assoc. AIA; and Senior Project Architect Martin A. Padilla, AIA, LEED Green Associate—also shared their strategies for overcoming challenges faced by early-career professionals, maintaining healthy AXP supervisor and mentor relationships, and more.
