The AIA Cincinnati VISION program successfully offered a “classroom-style” setting for those emerging leaders that have been removed from that type of environment longer than they wish to remember. Its well-structured combination of class locations, key-note speakers, industry conversation topics, and skill improvement assignments helped me, as a young architect, to view the profession (both locally and nationally) with broader brush strokes as opposed to the fine-tune detail of daily tasks. I highly recommend this program for those looking to grow both personally and professionally.
