Small Project Practitioners

AIA Small Project Practitioners Knowledge Community generates, collects and disseminates knowledge and wisdom on how to profitably run a small firm and how to carry out small projects that do not fit into the model of departmental production that characterizes many larger firms.

If you wish to become involved with AIA Small Project Practitioners, call AIA's Member Services, 800-242-3837, to designate SPP as one of your knowledge communities.
