bottom lines: $ 100 to start NCARB “Record” and maintain it for 3 years

$ 250 to transmit Record to a state or apply to take ARE

$ 75/year to maintain Record after the first 3 years of enrollment

if you maintain your Record, NCARB will waive the $1500 Certificate fee

summing up: aim to get registered

you drive the process

consult NCARB online and print resources first, then ask for help

enroll in IDP before you start earning training hours (there are no practical alternatives)

participate in the AIA Michigan Mentoring Network

2012-2013 AIA Michigan Mentoring Network

Tom Mathison

AIA Michigan Mentoring Network

is comprised of volunteer architects who are available for you as you prepare for a career in architecture.

All architecture students are welcome. There is no cost.

What it is: What it isn’t:

Opportunity to have a one-on one Relationship with a practicing architect A required course

Meetings and communications are at times and places convenient to you and A substitute for IDP your mentor

Brief feedback assessments A job placement service (1 per semester, online)

Mentors and students commit to a school year, but may continue their relationship indefinitely

Elements for success:

• Be responsive. – Respect each other

• Identify the communication method that works best for you.

• Be honest and open. Trust. – Mentoring is a two-way relationship

Remember: • Architects are busy people, just like students. Please respond when they contact you. Don’t wait two weeks to return a call or email.

• If your mentor doesn’t respond to your calls or emails, please call or email Tom Mathison, and he will help you get on track.

• Make an effort to meet in person with your mentor at least 1-2 times per semester – more if possible. The value improves dramatically when you meet in person.

• Architects are ready to assist you with just about anything – but be ready with good questions – real questions – about what’s on your mind. The responsiveness and value of your mentor will improve greatly.

Interested in participating?

• Fill out the Student Information Survey (print legibly) or sign in on-line:

surveymonkey.com/s/mentoringnetwork

• Read and sign the commitment at the end of the survey. It tells us that you are serious about success.
