    Participate in helping shape the future of the profession.

We are experiencing extraordinary times and the evolution of architecture seems on an escalating fast-track. Today we are facing changes in practice including BIM, new forms of contract, new technologies, developing global competition and the emerging solutions in sustainable design. As a profession we are dealing with the challenges of demographics, changes to the Intern Architect Program and recognizing Internationally-Trained Professionals. It takes all voices and contributions to effectively shape change.
    Be a part of it! Join us for the 2010 OAA Conference, May 5 – 8, 2010 in Windsor at the Caesars Windsor Hotel and Casino.
