AIAU Free Live Course: Supporting Parents Working from Home During COVID-19 and Beyond

May 27, 2020 at 2 PM EDT.

The COVID-19 pandemic is disrupting lives at work and at home. As schools and childcare centers are closed for social distancing, working parents are experiencing an unprecedented challenge. Join three architects as they discuss tips, tricks, and strategies to support parents as they balance working from home full time with raising children.

Learning objectives

  • Learn how to balance family responsibilities and remote-working full-time, while maintaining healthy physical and mental practices.

  • Develop an understanding of what ‘work-life balance’ means, and the impacts of work-life balance on productivity and health.

  • Explore real-life examples on how working parents continue to support their families, while managing multiple commitments.

  • Identify resources offered to members by local and state AIA components.

AIA Eugene Reverse Pin-Up @ UO - Call for Presenters

January 15, 2020 - Save the Date!

CALL FOR PRESENTERS
AIA Eugene would like to invite you to present in January at our annual Professional Pin-Up, at Lawrence Hall (UO). The format of the presentation is similar to an academic studio review.  Multiple firms will be presenting concurrently, with rotating reviewers comprised of students, faculty, and local professionals. VR and traditional presentation formats are acceptable.

Give future architecture interns the opportunity to witness ‘real life’ project design processes from local and regional architectural, planning, construction, and engineering professionals.  Showcase your projects during any phase of design and/or construction. Invite multiple professions involved with the project to present and discuss how collaboration affects design.

Respond to kwendland@aiaoregon.org if you would like to participate or learn more.  Thank you!
