Join 3x3 for an introduction to the tools and frameworks we use to lead trust-centered community engagement and design processes that foster belonging and strengthen project delivery in the built environment.
Meaningful community engagement shapes community partnerships and trust, timelines, approvals, and long-term project success. This session will introduce participants to community-centered and inclusive design frameworks that can transform design and construction-phase engagement into an opportunity for building trust with communities, stewardship, and placekeeping. Through an interactive activity, participants will explore how to scope engagement services for design processes that are co-creative and grounded in care, while maintaining project momentum and strengthening long-term community partnerships.

AIA and state requirements for continuing education
Licensed architects must earn continuing education credits each year to fulfill AIA membership requirements. You may also need to complete continuing education requirements to renew your state license(s). If you’re working on getting licensed, some AIA-approved courses count toward the experience requirement for licensure.
We offer a variety of ways to earn continuing education credits that make meeting your goals and licensing requirements interesting and convenient.
Annual benchmarksAIA measures continuing education in Learning Units (LUs). One hour of continuing education earns one LU. AIA Architect members are required to complete 18 LUs from registered AIA/CES providers each year. Of the 18 LUs, 12 must be in the topic areas of health, safety and welfare (HSW).
New York Build offers a range of AIA CES approved training workshops across the two days. See below for the full list of AIA CES sessions. For more information on AIA state requirements, click here.
