The Prospectus is Here!

NOMA is proud to present the NOMA International Conference Unplugged on October 26–30, 2022. So what does ‘Unplugged’ mean? At the 51st Annual Conference, over 1000 professional designers from across the nation plan to cut loose from our routine of staying indoors by ‘unplugging’
from our ritualistic ZOOM calls and fellowshipping once again with colleagues and friends. We are excited to host the conference in Nashville, TN, showcasing the best food, dance, art, culture, and music that “Music City” has to offer.

Fifty-one years ago, NOMA was founded by twelve African-American architects who saw the need to advocate for the Architecture and Design industry to be more inclusive, cultivate emerging talent that is often overlooked, and create more equitable communities. We are excited to showcase an exposition in the heart of one of NOMA’s newest and fastest-growing chapters: Nashville. Designers, planners, innovators, and thought leaders will congregate together in one of America’s most talked-about and celebrated cities to discover the latest in design, innovation, current events, and culture.

We welcome you to join us virtually as we celebrate the advancement of our community as the most ambitious and progressive minority professionals from the built environment come together to celebrate the future of architecture and design.

This track shall also include presentations related to service through programs and activities designed to support communities and the architectural profession.

BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT

NASHVILLES’S GOT “IT”

Nashville is often identified as one of the nation’s fastest growing “It” cities. This seminar track will focus on Nashville’s evolving cultural profile, which makes it a hotbed for BIPOC creatives, tech companies, real estate development, and the entertainment industry.

of submittal for entry to be complete.

* Required

Select one of the following course directories to advertise your course online here: http://www.aia.org/education/findcourses/index.html

Select a topic area most associated with the course you are submitting.

The course title should encompass the overall theme of the course and summarize what the attendee will learn in a few words.

The course description is required and should contain a brief overview of your course. A helpful tip if you do not have a course description is to pull it from the learning objectives.

Key Words are required and should be separated by commas. These key words should be related to your course and will be searchable by the public in the online course directory.

Specify if your course is a general learning unit (LU), HSW/LU, or HSW/SD/LU. To learn more about what topic areas qualify in these areas, please refer to the Provider Manual http://www.aia.org/aiaucmp/groups/aia/documents/pdf/aiab086456.pdf

Fill in the course learning units (LU). For your reference, the learning units are equal to the length of the course, so a one hour course would equal one learning unit.

Four learning objectives are required. For more information on creating learning objectives please visit http://www.aia.org/education/providers/AIAS076145
