Iowa AIA Training

Meet your AIA training requirements on your own time with our online training courses from industry professionals designed to fit into your busy schedule.

In Iowa, architects are always hard at work, designing residences and commercial and public buildings. When done correctly, architectural work can last for generations, and it offers beauty as well as practical spaces for the community. Well-designed buildings are attractive, easily maintained, and efficient. They fulfill their purpose for many years.

In order to achieve impressive goals, architects must complete years of training. To maintain their license and their skills, however, architects never stop learning. The laws and best practices of architecture are always changing, so architects need to continue to build their skills and understanding to stay fully compliant and remain competitive in the industry.

Iowa License Renewal Training Requirements for Architects

Architects licensed in Iowa need to finish 24 hours of continuing education every two years in approved HSW (Health Safety and Welfare) subject areas in order to renew their license. If your last name starts with the letters A through K, you must complete your continuing education requirements by June 30 of every even-numbered year. If your last name starts with any letter from L through Z, you need to complete your mandatory training by June 30 of odd-numbered years. You can complete all required training online or through live training.

In addition, you must complete 18 hours of AIA-approved training to renew your membership in AIA each year. Different professional bodies may have additional training requirements.
