Preliminary figures indicate
that compensation gains for architect positions have been modest over the
past three years. Nationally, the only category that has seen double-digit
gains over the 19992002 period has been entry-level Interns. With
architecture firms competing with other businesses for recent architecture
graduates, firms were forced to offer more to attract entry-levels candidates
to the profession.
The AIA is in the process of updating compensation trends at U.S. architecture
firms. It's been three years since comprehensive compensation information
on positions at firms has been published by the AIA. However, to get an
accurate picture, we need you to participate in this survey. As a participant,
you are eligible to purchase the survey for 50% off the member rate. Also,
we will be sending a free summary of the report to all participating firms
when the study is complete.
If you have any questions about the survey, call William M. Mercer, Inc.,
the firm engaged by the AIA to conduct this survey, tollfree, 800-333-3070.
