ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Experience is essential to becoming an architect—but access to meaningful experience is not always equal. This episode looks at how candidates earn experience today and how firm culture can shape the path to licensure.
Andy speaks with Gabriella Bermea, Chair of NCARB’s Experience Committee, about the Architectural Experience Program, recent AXP updates, and how the program is being aligned with NCARB’s Competency Standard.
Then, Jenny Kawecki joins to discuss what NCARB’s data reveals about attrition, supervisor relationships, firm support, and the challenges candidates face when trying to complete experience requirements.
