Our plan is simple; create an international community of practicing architects and allow that body to drive standards according to their current needs. The BT architecture profession is continuously evolving, and architects everywhere are eager to learn about the latest technology and best practices.  Iasa helps make this possible for thousands of practicing architects around the globe.
