Discounted Convention Registration for Associates!
The National Associates Committee is pleased to announce that the National AIA Board has recently voted to allow discount Convention Registration for Associate Members! This year, Associates will only have to pay half price of the AIA Member rate (still to be determined). The issue of Associate accessibility to Convention has been a very significant and ongoing  issue with the NAC since 2010, when the initial proposal for convention discount was rejected. I want to personally thank all of the Chapter’s that have sent letters to National in support of this issue, especially Karen Lewand, Hon AIA, of AIABaltimore for taking on this initiative.

We are privileged to have Convention 2012 in DC this year. I would like to encourage firms to allow their Associates to take time off to participate in all the great resources provided at Convention and to even consider sponsoring registration costs. Further discounts may be  available for volunteering at Convention, please contact me at rad.midatlantic@gmail.com for more information.
