The RAIC is excited to announce a new strategic plan that will guide our organization, and empower our members, as we aim to create a better world for all through inspired architecture in Canada.

To present this new strategic plan, the RAIC held and open forum on December 13, 2021 where participants were able to hear from President John Brown FRAIC, and celebrate this plan, which launches our efforts for the future in an exciting new direction.

If you were unable to attend the live event, we’ve got you covered. Watch the recording of the Forum to learn how we plan to empower our members to build a better profession across Canada. 

The RAIC is always working to enhance its continuing education offerings for the architectural community. This year, we are launching enhanced learning opportunities with our new Industry Insiders webinars!

In these sessions, you will have an inside look at industry knowledge trends and new initiatives to empower Canada’s architectural community.
