PRACTICE MATTERS is the inaugural APEN symposium to be held on Thursday 21st and Friday 22nd November 2024 at UNSW School of Built Environment, Sydney Australia
The Architectural Practice Educators Network (APEN) invites academics, educators and practitioners to attend our ‘PRACTICE MATTERS’ symposium.
The symposium will investigate and spotlight the intersection of professional capabilities with the wider architectural curriculum. Innovative pedagogical practices will be celebrated and discussed, alongside identifying opportunities for contemporary architectural education to engage more deeply with the skills and knowledge required to support graduate success in practice.
Beyond dedicated architectural practice subjects, the symposium will also present practitioner- and academic-educators delivering inventive teaching that responds to ‘real world’ practice and the possible futures for the architectural profession.
Like APEN, this event brings together ‘like minds’ to capture knowledge and ideas pertaining to professional skills and competencies, with the goal of sharing and discussing these learnings more broadly.
APEN acknowledges the following organisations for the financial and in-kind support that has been provided to make this Symposium possible:
