Weekly Highlights

ARE CHALLENGE HALF-WAY UPDATE!

This year, AIA Michigan has captured our ambitious associates pursuing licensure in our ARE Challenge Program. Bench-marked on other successful programs, this Exam Prep Program is about creating an exam cohort, yet small local study groups.  The biggest hurdle to passing the exams is in fact scheduling to sit for them.

40 challenge participants from across the state

4 Sections offered live [Detroit + Mid-Michigan Chapter]

20+ Exams Passed to date [not all participants reporting]

 

Read the interview from our Challenge Drawing Winner, James Witman, Associate AIA on his thoughts about the Challenge program! Click here
