ARE Success Teams / back to Programs page »

Since 2005, BSA ARE Success Teams have brought together unlicensed designers to study and complete the Architect Registration Examination (ARE) within a year.

Success Teams offer the opportunity to learn from and share with your peers and future colleagues. Formed at one of our quarterly kickoffs, teams are largely self-structured. Teams coordinate meeting times and locations and study together, sharing their experience, resources and tips, keeping everyone on track and asking questions. Each member pledges to meet with and support their team members through the completion of their exam series. A library of Kaplan study materials is available at the BSA offices for team members to borrow.

2013 kickoff meetings:

Thursday, January 24, 6:00 pm
Thursday, April 25, 6:00 pm cancelled
Thursday, July 25, 6:00 pm (Register.)
Thursday, October 24, 6:00 pm (Register.)

All meetings take place at BSA Space, 290 Congress Street, Boston.

Many Success Teams “alums” tell us their group was invaluable to their licensure process, and even remain close for years after. We hope you’ll find a similar experience. To learn more about the ARE Success Teams program, contact Jen Potter at are@architects.org or 617-391-4021.

Fee: $60 (free for members) plus $90 refundable lending library deposit
