WE310 Equity by Design Hackathon & Happy Hour: AIA Convention 2015 Atlanta

WE310 Equity by Design: Knowledge, Discussion, Action! 

Inspired by the sold-out October 18th Symposium in San Francisco, this workshop will feature the most popular break-out topics from each knowledge area: Hiring and retention, growth and development, meaning and influence. This energizing half-day workshop will begin by reviewing the findings from the 2014 Equity in Architecture Survey.  What is a Hackathon? You'll use design thinking skills in a rapid prototyping format and competition setting with an elevator pitch to present your initiative for best practices relating to talent recruitment, work/life flexibility, career advancement and transparency, mentorship, negotiation and more. 

Happy Hour at Studio No. 7 - 5/13 @ 5:30-7:30

Location: Studio No. 7 at 393 Marietta Street N.W. Atlanta, GA 30313

Following the WE310 EQxD Workshop, participants will be invited to a complimentary Happy Hour  (5:30pm-7:30pm) at Studio No. 7 for Jury deliberations and Awards. If you can't make the workshop, we will have registration and minor fee to attend Happy Hour event so that you can catch up on the highlights of the Hackathon! Proceeds beyond costs of the event go to funding the 2016 Equity in Architecture Survey.

What opportunities lie beyond the traditional practice of architecture? Hear from a panel of architecture school graduates, including former practitioners, about how their career choices – whether made for practical, professional or philosophical reasons – broadened their perspectives on the profession.

Meant for all audiences, the panelists' varied stories will provide insight into how to start, jump-start or evolve a career in architecture. Emmy Award-winning broadcast journalist and media communications consultant Sydnie Kohara moderates.

This event is worth 2 CEU Learning Units
