Don’t be a nobody toiling away, Get Licensed this Year!

AEA is the perfect resource and guidance. We offer valuable content you can’t find anywhere else. For young graduate architects who don’t have a lot of time, or for project managers needing to finally get licensed.  

We have organized studying for you.   We give you the break down of what you need to know to pass your ARE’s. We show you what is correct, don’t waste time searching a forum.  If working full time, then AEA is a tremendous resource for professionals on the go!  You can take practice exams, and review materials on AEA any time of day. 

If you are just starting out, AEA is a great way to get a handle on all the information.  Don’t know where to start studying, AEA makes it easy to start.

We could charge more, but we really want to keep the cost low for we were once underpaid architectural interns.  Why do we charge?–to keep this fast server going, AEA runs on a dedicated server that allows user to download files fast, find the information you need fast, and start studying immediately.

Once you become a member you will have access to all member resources, downloads, and practice exams.

We know they don’t really teach for the exams in school, its all design, and it can be hard to get excited about this stuff .  But let’s face it, taking the ARE is essential for registration and career longevity.  And now that you are out of school and in the real world, its good to know a thing or two about codes, ethics, practice, safety, health and welfare, and contracts!

We encourage you to join the Arch Exam Academy and Pass your AREs!
