The NCARB Podcast, hosted by Andy McIntyre, Vice President at NCARB, brings together architects, educators, regulators, researchers, and industry leaders to unpack the systems behind licensure—and how those systems are evolving to better serve candidates, the profession, and the public. Season 1 explores Pathways to Practice, NCARB’s multi-year initiative to reimagine the path to architectural licensure. Across the season, Andy and his guests examine how licensure evolved, where today’s process creates barriers, and how a more flexible, competency-based model could expand access while maintaining the rigor needed to protect the public’s health, safety, and welfare.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-08T16:20:28.886756+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/ncarb-7868300"},"episode":{"title":"Earning Experience","slug":"earning-experience","published_at":"2026-06-10T07:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/ncarb-7868300/earning-experience","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/ncarb-7868300","url":"https://gablmedia.com/earning-experience","audio_url":"https://episodes.captivate.fm/episode/c14c4efa-b526-4e42-8180-7eb04a90d027.mp3","summary":"Experience is essential to becoming an architect—but access to meaningful experience is not always equal.
