2011 YAF Advisory Committee Open Positions Call
The Young Architects Forum (YAF) is a program of The American Institute of Architects and the AIA’s College of Fellows (COF), and is organized to address issues of particular importance to recently licensed architects (within 10 years of licensure). The national YAF Advisory Committee (AdCom) is charged with encouraging the development of national and regional programs of interest to young architects and supporting the creation of YAF groups within local chapters.
Each fall, the YAF National AdCom seeks to fill positions for the following year, which begin January 1st. Terms vary from 1-2 years, and members may serve up to four years on the Committee. Major meetings of the AdCom are typically scheduled three times a year (AIA Grassroots, AIA National Convention and a fall YAF conference) along with monthly conference calls.

Eligibility: Nominees must be architects licensed ten years or less, for at least the first year of their term. Appointments are based on submitted materials, and selection will be made by the YAF AdCom selection committee in early October of the preceding year.
