A professional networking event for emerging practitioners, newcomers and students featuring the most recently appointed RAIC Fellows.
You may have seen the letters FRAIC after someone’s name, but do you know what they represent? FRAIC—or a Fellow of the RAIC College—is a member of the profession who has been recognized by their peers for their professional eminence or service to the profession and wider community. It is amongst the highest honours that can be given to an RAIC member and now is your opportunity to meet some of them!
For our next TSA CONNECT, we’re excited to welcome the RAIC and the RAIC College’s Ontario Southwest Committee for a special-edition of our signature networking event, this time featuring and celebrating the most recently-inducted RAIC Fellows from our region! From leaders in practice to community organizers, scholars and researchers to design advocates, our Featured Guests have all been recognized by their peers for making a difference in the profession. Whether you are a student, young professional, or just looking to meet some inspiring individuals, this session is a great opportunity to learn about their unique career paths and what motivates them to keep giving. And as an added feature, we’ll also have some information on RAIC Foundation scholarships for both students and Intern Architects which you won’t want to miss!
So come out and meet some inspiring individuals, learn about their stories, and make some connections at this very special TSA CONNECT with the RAIC!
