    • 1 AIA LU | HSW | EnhanceSus_OD (AIA Members: Your completion will be reported by the course provider if you enter your AIA Member number when prompted at the end of the course. Contact education@asid.org if you have questions.)

    Description

    We live in a world of limited resources, and the AEC industry not only has a large impact on the use of those resources, but also the overall health of our planet. As designers, it is important to consider the impact of the project not only on the environment, but also on the health of its occupants.
     
    In this course, we’ll discuss how to better identify and reduce a design’s carbon footprint using Building Information Modeling (BIM). Specifying high-quality, sustainable materials for interiors can not only lead to longer product life cycles and better energy management, but also benefit the overall health of the occupant by limiting the use of toxic substances and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). We’ll demonstrate how BIM gives the designer more control over a building’s level of sustainability – such as generating embodied carbon calculations – and gives the designer more opportunities to enhance the aesthetics and occupant comfort by using a systems approach.

    Description

    As human lifespans extend, the cost of living continues to rise, and lifestyles become increasingly diverse, there is a compelling opportunity to proactively integrate universal design principles into everyday living. By incorporating accessibility features into the early stages of home construction, we can create barrier-free living environments that accommodate changing needs over time. In this lesson, we'll explore the benefits of incorporating universal design into residential projects. Participants will learn how to advocate for and integrate baseline accessibility features into home construction, promoting longevity and cost-effectiveness. By embedding universal design principles into the planning phase, we can prevent costly renovations or relocations, ensuring homes remain accessible and inclusive for all.

    Description

    For designers who take pride in bringing meaningful experiences to their clients and pull out all the stops to fulfill their vision, the pandemic created frequent issues with materials, supply chains, product availability, staffing, and other deliverables. These challenges permeate our professional lives but do not have to overwhelm us. To thrive in the midst of change and adapt to new modes within the industry, professionals must increase flexibility and their skills in resilience. Cultivating resilient behavior helps buffer against adversity so that we can continue to be our best selves in our personal and professional lives.


    What you will learn
    • Describe the characteristics of resilience as it relates to all aspects of life. 
    • Identify the role of tools such as breathing, mindfulness, journaling, and mindfulness-based movement (Pilates) as resources for building resilience. 
    • Implement resilience-based practices to integrate in daily interactions with clients, vendors, and colleagues, as well as for personal growth.
    • Review and consult public resources to help further cultivate resiliency skills. 


    Format
    • Each weekly module includes instructional videos about 15 minutes in length along with about 15 minutes of readings, podcasts, or videos to provide background information, and journaling or other activity. Have a notebook handy to use as a journal when prompted. You will progress through the content in sequential order.
    • At the completion of each week’s lesson, you will upload your completed activity as an assignment. You must complete each week’s assignment to receive continuing education credits (CEUs).
    • We recommend that you complete one module each week for a total of six weeks in chronological sequence.


    Modules

    • WEEK 1: Mindfulness to Reduce Stress 
      • We will describe characteristics of resilience, identify tools for cultivating resilience, implement resilience-based practices, and discover resources for further support. Your primary resilience tool is mindfulness.  
    • WEEK 2: How to Cope with Toxic Personalities | Resilience Skill: Forgiveness
      • At some point in your design career, you’ve probably had a client who rubs you the wrong way. Maybe they seem to enjoy being difficult, or they’re self-absorbed, rude, indecisive, or all of the above. The bottom line is that working with this client increases your stress. You don’t want to engage in the project, but you have to get it done. How can you approach this client and project with resilience? We’ll explore strategies to manage the situation to your benefit so you can succeed.
    • WEEK 3: Building Self-Confidence | Resilience Skill: Facing Fears 
      • In this week’s session we focus on building self-confidence and the benefit of facing your fears to achieve personal growth. We’ll discuss the value of committing to self-discovery to develop your authentic professional self, and how to reframe weaknesses as opportunities.
    • WEEK 4: How to Navigate Unpredictable Events | Resilience Skill: Regulating Emotion 
      • We must all deal with the unpredictability of “upstream” factors outside of our control, such as supply chain delays, weather events, or sudden staff shortages. Becoming pre-occupied with the constant fear of failure creates anxiety. Build your flexibility and adaptability for when plans go awry so you don’t become frozen in place.  
    • WEEK 5: Creating Self-Care Practice | Resilience Skill: Establishing Routine and Preparation 
      • When our workload increases, we tend to sacrifice downtime. Pressing deadlines increase stress and heighten our stress response, creating an energy vacuum. Disruptions are unavoidable but the faster you can reestablish equilibrium, the easier it is to regain emotional control. Routine self-care buffers against the sense of losing control. 
    • WEEK 6: Utilizing Social Support | Resilience Skill: Building Social Connections to Reduce Isolation 
      • When we feel overwhelmed, retreating can provide some respite, but feeling isolated can increase anxiety. Finding connection with peers produces feelings of acceptance, helping you to reduce the burden of “going it alone” by providing an outlet for expression and strengthening our resolve. Learn how to overcome a common barrier to making new social connections: not enough time.

    Description

    Across North America hundreds of thousands of people are currently living without permanent housing. How can design help to reduce trauma and instill resiliency in people experiencing homelessness? Supported by research funded by the ASID Foundation, learn trauma-informed design strategies for creating safe, healing, and welcoming environments for vulnerable populations and the people who serve them, focused on elements such as layout and planning, comfort, paint and color, furniture and finishes, flooring, lighting, and biophilia. Review research-based guidelines and case studies to provide a better understanding of how trauma-informed design can benefit shelters and other agencies by offering broad solutions for communities and homeless populations, including consideration of budget constraints. Design teams, contractors, and shelter providers will all benefit from guidance on creating healthy and supportive spaces for people experiencing homelessness.

    • Identify how design can nurture the happiness, health and performance of staff and volunteers working within different facility types.
