Since 1857, when 13 architects formed what would become The American Institute of Architects, the letters AIA have signified the highest standards in architectural practice. Today, more than 160 years later, with 96,000+ members, the letters AIA still deliver an abiding promise of rigorous education, extensive training, real-world experience, and a commitment to professional excellence recognized by clients, civic leaders, and the public.
AIA Idaho Chapter represents 400 architect members and affiliated industry members.
