My wife and I are licensed architects, she in DC and me in Virginia. Several months ago, she heard that DC enacted a continued education program, so she obtained the CE requirements, read a couple of my books, and attended overpriced AIA sponsored seminars, often signing her name and license number on a make-shift paper passed around to attendees (an unethical issue for another time). Recently, she called the DC board and asked where she needed to file her credits. She’s told by an administrator, who pronounces architecture as “arCH–ka-tek-chair”, that the DC board decided not to enact the CE program until 2010. Ha Ha. Well, it just time, energy and money.
