"We Teach How" is not just a slogan.  DBIA is committed to achieving, not just talking about, integrated project delivery.  As a matter of fact, design-build is the "original" integrated project delivery approach.  DBIA educational programs are developed to teach practical "how to" courses about design-build and to advance the education, public awareness, understanding and utility of design-build. Courses and programs developed and delivered by DBIA utilize interactive learning strategies to teach topics ranging from an introduction of design-build techniques to advanced application of designbuild concepts. All are designed to impart practical learning which can be utilized in the office and on the job.

Who Should Attend DBIA Courses?

Because design-build is an integrated project delivery method, attendees of DBIA courses span a large spectrum, including government agency employees, owners of buildings, civil infrastructure and process plant facilities, architects, engineers, and constructors. In addition, other individuals with an interest/experience in integrated services also find DBIA courses to be valuable opportunities for additional education and networking, including teaching/research academics specializing in architecture, engineering, and construction, and students pursuing degrees in architecture, engineering, and construction.

Continuing Education

DBIA's courses are approved for AIA continuing education credit. Credit earned at DBIA conferences qualify for elective credits or continuing education credit needed for the Designated Design-Build Professional™ Program.
