    Jargon alert: ARE 4.0 + IDP seminar hosted by AIA Cleveland

    A big part of becoming an actual "architect" is not only the grueling school work and the internship (3 years or so) but then one gets to sit for a series of exams which were no doubt prepared by lawyers practicing their legalese.

    As any part of contrived and difficult to understand bureaucracy, the ARE (Architect Registration Exam) is undergoing a series of changes to "streamline" and make "more current" the examination procedure.

    Certain aspects of the examination have been updated such as:

    The ability to begin sitting for examination before completion of IDP (Intern Development Program).

    The decrease from 9 sections of the examination to 7 sections which...

    ...means that some sections were combined and all your study guides are not as current.

    Oh, and the fees are changing too.

    Luckily the Cleveland Chapter of the AIA will host a discussion regarding the new exam called (in very high-tech fashion) ARE 4.0. Strangely if you type '4' while holding the shift key you get at '$' sign. Crazy stuff, eh?
