"IDP 2.0 updates the Intern Development Program (IDP) requirements to more closely align with the practice of architecture today. The proposed changes, which will be rolled out in phases over the next two years, will help ensure that interns acquire the comprehensive training that is essential for competent practice. The changes also offer many benefits to interns by allowing them to complete some of the IDP training requirements during periods of unemployment, expanding the definition of “direct supervision,” and simplifying the reporting process."
Beginning on July 1, 2009 you may earn IDP training units for the following whether you are employed or not:
- LEED Accreditation—five supplementary education training units.
- CSI Construction Documents Technologist (CDT)—five supplementary education training units.
- CSI Certified Construction Specifier (CCS)—five training units toward the minimum required training units in Training Area 9, Specifications and Materials Research.
- CSI Certified Construction Contract Administrator (CCCA)—five training units toward the minimum required training units in Training Area 12, Construction Phase—Office.
- Earn two training units toward the minimum required training units in Training Area 15, Office Management, by reading the NCARB Professional Conduct monograph, and passing the related quiz.
- Earn supplementary education training units by completing AIA-approved continuing education programs. Interns must provide NCARB with an AIA transcript to receive credit.
