SUMMARY:Webinar: From Data Chaos to AI Readiness
DESCRIPTION:Webinar: From Data Chaos to AI Readiness \nDate & Time: Tuesday\, May 5\, 12:00 p.m. – 1:00 p.m.\nCost: Free \nAI adoption is top of mind for architecture firms\, but most teams are trying to build on a messy foundation. Before AI can be useful\, firms need clearer data organization\, stronger governance\, and better visibility across the tools they already use. \nIn this live conversation\, Evelyn Lee of Practice of Architecture is joined by Aaron Vorwerk of Egnyte and Justin Hiles\, CIO at VLK\, to discuss what “data chaos” actually looks like inside firms\, what it takes to consolidate systems\, and why that work is the real prerequisite for AI readiness.

SUMMARY:Pre-Construction as a New Revenue Stream for Architects
DESCRIPTION:Pre-Construction as a New Revenue Stream for Architects\nStop leaving money on the table. See how new AI tools can help.\nAI is entering architectural practice quickly. The firms that learn how to use it effectively will be in a stronger position to expand services and capture new revenue.\nMany architects give away valuable work at the beginning of projects. Early feasibility studies\, conceptual cost analysis\, and project strategy discussions often happen before a contract is even signed.\nNew AI tools are changing that.\nArchitects can now produce early project analysis faster and more efficiently\, making it possible to offer paid pre construction services that developers and owners increasingly expect.\nThis virtual program explores how architects can use new AI tools to:\n● Deliver rapid feasibility and project analysis\n● Provide early cost and program insights\n● Offer pre construction advisory services clients will pay for\n● Position your firm earlier in the development process\nArchitects who understand how to apply these tools can move upstream in the development process and turn early project work into a meaningful new source of revenue. \nRegister here.

SUMMARY:Architecture\, Belonging\, and Connection (ABC) – Candid Conversation About Showing Up for the Next Generation of Architects: Internships\, Mentorship\, and capX
DESCRIPTION:Architecture\, Belonging\, and Connection (ABC) –\nCandid Conversation About Showing Up for the Next Generation of Architects: Internships\, Mentorship\, and capX \nDate: Monday\, January 26\, 2026\nTime: 10:00 -11:00 a.m.\nCE Units: n/a\nCost: $0 to all \nThe future of architecture is strengthened when firms actively engage students and emerging professionals early in their journey. Internships and meaningful exposure to practice play a critical role in developing talent\, expanding access\, and sustaining the profession. However\, access to internships and early professional experience remains uneven\, shaped by geography\, educational pathways\, socioeconomic realities\, and the capacity of architecture firms. \nThis candid conversation is an opportunity to share insight into what is working and how engagement can be expanded in ways that are practical and mutually beneficial. Together\, we will explore how tools like capX (California Architectural Practice Experience) can support firms and emerging professionals through flexible models that evolve with the needs of our community. \nClick here to register

SUMMARY:Your Next Hire Might Not Be Human: How AI and Outsourcing Are Rewriting the Rules
DESCRIPTION:Your Next Hire Might Not Be Human:\nHow AI and Outsourcing Are Rewriting the Rules \nDate: Thursday\, January 22\, 2026\nTime: 12:00 -1:00 p.m.\nCE Units: 1 LU|HSW\nCost: $0 members\, $0 non-members \nIn an era where AI can draft proposals\, automate invoicing\, and even generate design options\, the question facing firm leaders isn’t who to hire; it’s whether to hire at all. Traditional staffing models are being challenged by automation\, global talent marketplaces\, and an urgent need for agility. At the same time\, the human dimension of business\, culture\, creativity\, and trust is more important than ever. \nThis webinar will challenge long-held assumptions about what a team should look like. We’ll explore when it makes sense to invest in a full-time hire\, when outsourcing or automation delivers better ROI\, and how to build a firm that clients trust\, even when your “team” looks very different from what they expect. \nClick here to register

SUMMARY:Digital Twins: Integrating Resilience in Architectural Projects
DESCRIPTION:Digital Twins: Integrating Resilience in Architectural Projects \nDate: September 30\, 2025\nTime: 12: 00 – 1:30pm\nURL: https://events.aiacalifornia.org/event/digital-twins-integrating-resilience…\nCE Units: 1.5 LU/HSW\nCost: $0 for AIA members / $25 for non-members \nBuilding occupants have higher expectations for the indoor environments they occupy. Changing use patterns and dynamic outdoor conditions mean that static controls aren’t adequate to maintain healthy and comfortable indoor environments while also saving energy. Digital Twins can optimize performance based on multiple sensors and data sources derived from multiple sensors and provide fault detection if any of the sensors fail or fall out of calibration. \nA Digital Twin is a virtual representation of a real-world entity or process. It uses historic data and real-time observations to optimize system performance\, support proactive maintenance\, systems and information decisions. Digital Twinning involves a two-way digital communication channel that provides regular updates and intelligence to the virtual representation\, which then processes and interprets the data and presents it in actionable form to users\, thereby guiding optimization of the real-world entity. \nIn this webinar\, attendees will take a deep dive into Digital Twins and how they are being employed to promote design excellence and resilience. \nModerator:\nAlan Scott\, FAIA\, LEED Fellow\, LEED AP BD+C\, O+M\, CEM\, WELL AP | Director of Sustainability\, Intertek\nSpeakers:\nAmy Polvado | Chairwoman\, Founder and CEO\, Facilimax\nChikara Inamura | Director of Digital Technology\, CO Architects\nDr. David Jason Gerber | Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering Practice and of Architecture\, University of Southern California \nRegister here.\nRegistration for this webinar will close at 10am PT on Tuesday\, September 30\, 2025. Registrants will receive their Zoom link no later than 10:30am PT the day of.

SUMMARY:ZNCD Webinar – Salvaged Lumber Reuse in Federal Center South
DESCRIPTION:ZNCD Webinar – Salvaged Lumber Reuse in Federal Center South \nDate: Wednesday\, September 3\, 2025\nTime: 12:00 PM – 1:00 PM\nCE Units: 1 LU/HSW; 1hr ZNCD MCE\nCost: $0 for AIA members / $25 for non-members \nAll things must come to an end – including buildings. But does everything at the end of a building’s life need to end? New construction and renovation projects continue to deplete vast quantities of resources\, many of which go to waste. It doesn’t have to be this way. You can build efficiently with sustainable products\, but reusing building materials salvaged from old structures is yet another way to decarbonize.\nEncouraging materials reuse reduce the amount of embodied carbon in our buildings and can help reduce waste from deconstruction. In this webinar\, we will explore a case study on salvaged lumber. Federal Center South in Seattle\, Washington includes reclaimed timber from a warehouse that previously occupied the site. Join us as we dive into the reuse strategies and sustainable design approaches seen in the project.\nModerator:\nAvideh Haghighi\, AIA | Deep Green Architect & Advocate\, Founder @ ZEROHOUZ\nSpeaker:\nAmie Sullivan\, PE\, SE | Managing Principal\, kpff \nRegister here. Registration for this webinar will close at 10am PT on Wednesday\, September 3\, 2025. Registrants will receive their Zoom link no later than 10:30am PT the day of.
