Helping Architecture Interns with IDP

One of the most important new aspects of becoming an architect in the United States in the last decade is the mandatory Intern Development Program (aka: IDP) for young architecture graduates. IDP is a very important issue to so many new young architects because it is required for taking the state boards (ARE) in almost all states. So it great to see that Mac architecture interns have a program available to them to help them fulfill this strict requirement.

Architrax works with both Mac or PC by using MS Excel and Word documents in the 97 format (98 for Mac). The program is essentially a sophisticated Excel spreadsheet that documents and evaluates your progress in acquiring your IDP training units requisite for NCARB certification.

A detailed view of Architrax (below) gives you an idea about how the software works in presenting your daily data graphically so you can assess your Architect Intern development in daily increments.

[Editor's note: we will looking into the new Architrax program for tracking CE units (continuing education) for licensed professional architects when it is made available.]
