Architecture 2030 recently announced the launch of the first course in the new AIA+2030 Online Series, an educational program aimed at providing American Institute of Architects (AIA) members and other design professionals with the high-performance building knowledge necessary to meet the 2030 Challenge targets.
The AIA+2030 Online Series will provide design professionals the tools to create buildings that meet the energy efficiency targets of the 2030 Challenge, offering strategies to reach a minimum of a 70% reduction in building energy consumption, significant savings in energy costs, and fossil fuel greenhouse gas emissions today, increasing to carbon neutral for new building designs by 2030.
Per Edward Mazria, Architecture 2030 Founder and CEO,
This is the first comprehensive program in the U.S. that educates the architectural profession in specific design and technology applications toreduce energy consumption and carbon emissions.
The AIA and Architecture 2030 co-production (in partnership with AIA Seattle) is sponsored by Autodesk and delivered through AIAU, the AIA’s online education portal. The ten one-hour courses of the Online Series are based on the highly successful AIA+2030 Professional Series that has been offered to over 30% of AIA’s membership in 27 markets throughout the United States and Canada.
The first course can be accessed here.
The second and third courses of the AIA+2030 Online Series will be released this fall, with the full series available by the end of 2016.
