Members can earn learning unit (LU)
hours by attending programs offered by AIA/CES registered
providers or through self-reporting independent activities.
Programs offered by AIA/CES providers,
including AIACV, are filed with AIA/CES Records in Oklahoma.
Programs offered by AIACV generally provide AIA/CES
credit, and the number of units offered will be published
in event / program notifications.
AIACV will report earned units for those who have signed
in at applicable AIACV events / programs.

SELF-DESIGNED ACTIVITY. The learning
activity is organized by the member specifically to
meet the member's individual needs. A self-designed
activity frequently involves more than one type of medium
or method such as research, reading, interviewing subject
experts, listening to audiotapes, and/or viewing videos.
To determine what qualifies for self-reporting, ask
yourself the following questions: (a) Is this a planned
learning activity? (b) Is this activity intended to
be educational or operational? (c) Is this new knowledge
for you or are you sharing your knowledge with others?
(d) How will you apply this new knowledge to your practice?
This method is not acceptable for health, safety, and
welfare (HSW) credit. Some state licensing boards will
not accept this type of reporting for mandatory continuing
education (MCE) requirements. (Recommended minimum of
three hours]
. . . or
STRUCTURED SELF-REPORTED PROGRAM. This is a structured
activity offered by an organized, third-party, non-CES
provider and may qualify for health, safety, and welfare
(HSW) credit. Documentation of attendance/participation
will usually be required as a supplement when reporting
this activity as a state licensure requirement. For
members who self-report a structured activity, the AlA
is unable to assist in supplying any support documentation
that may be required by a state licensing board MCE
audit.
Members may select the appropriate format of the learning
activity and return a completed AlA Self-Report Form
so that the data can be entered accurately into their
individual transcripts. Members calculate LU hours for
self-reported activities by reporting the number of
hours spent in architecture-related learning. Think
in terms of billable hours applied to learning.
To be eligible for credit, self-reported activities
must be planned, educational, new knowledge for the
individual member, and applied toward the practice of
architecture. All self-report forms should be sent to
the AIA/CES Records at the University of Oklahoma.
