The AIA/CRAN Emerging Professionals (EP) Committee is looking to expand! We would like to invite you to join in the only AIA Knowledge Community committee specifically geared towards helping emerging architectural professionals in the residential niche of our industry. The EP committee is dedicated to helping support, advocate for and educate recent graduates and emerging professionals (those pursuing licensure and those licensed less than 10 years) on the opportunities available to them in residential practice.

The AIA/CRAN Emerging Professional Committee, a sub-committee to the AIA/CRAN Advisory Group, is represented by a 16-member executive committee including a chairperson, a past chairperson, a Vice Chairperson, a Second Vice Chairperson, an EP representative on the CRAN AG, and a secretary.  CRAN hosts many programs and events on both the local and national levels, including our annual Symposium, sessions at the AIA National Convention and our annual Knowledge Leadership Assembly (KLA).  For continuity and strength within CRAN's leadership, our goal is for EP committee members to move up to committee leadership positions and potentially serve on the CRAN Advisory Group.

To request an application or find out more about the CRAN EP Committee, please contact Lindsay Colwell, CRAN EP Chair, at AIACRANEP@gmail.com.

Thank you Lindsay,

As the current chairperson of CRAN, one of my major goals over the next year is to expand the many committees and subcommittees of CRAN at a national level with new blood in order to grow exponentially in the future. About two years ago I created this video as our CRAN Advisory Group began the process of adding an EP to our CRAN Advisory Group.  Intimately, Lindsay was that choice.  Soon after, about six months ago,  an EP committee was formed that has already started monthly meetings, creating their internal roles and rules, creating this application, and is now begining the application and vetting proceess to grow to a full board.  Please consider joining. Again if you have any questions, please contact Lindsay Colwell, CRAN EP Chair, at AIACRANEP@gmail.com.
