A professional networking and mentorship event highlighting internationally trained architects and their diverse paths in the industry.
We know it can be difficult to make connections when moving to a new place—let alone an entirely new country—but don't worry, the TSA has your back! For this upcoming TSA CONNECT, we are excited to once again put our focus on internationally-trained professionals and newcomers seeking to establish their career paths in Canada. And who better to answer questions about moving to a new country, than our Featured Guests who have all successfully navigated transitioning their lives and careers to Canada—each in their own unique way!
With degrees, licenses, and professional experience from South Africa to Costa Rica, Italy to India, our amazing lineup of guests will share how they have managed to translate their experiences into a wide variety of career paths in their new home in Toronto, including traditional architectural practice, boutique design firms, urban design, and so much more.
Join us for a fun and insightful evening, make some connections, and hear some of the many stories and advice on career paths, job searching, and more from our amazing Featured Guests!
