What is IDP?
A tool to verify experience
The purpose of the Intern Development Program (IDP) is to train and develop competent architects who are prepared to practice architecture independently upon registration, and support the National Council of Architectural Registration Boards’ mission to protect the health, safety, and welfare of the public.
A training requirement in most jurisdictions
The IDP is designed to make your internship a meaningful experience by exposing you to many aspects of the profession so that you are prepared to practice architecture independently.
When can you start?
1. Three years in an NAAB-accredited professional degree program
2. The third year of a four year pre-professional degree program in architecture accepted for direct entry to a two-year NAAB-accredited professional master’s degree program
3. One year in NAAB-accredited professional master’s degree program following receipt of a non-professional degree
