Foundations of Practice Webinar Mini-Series 2021 Poster

Co-operative practices have the benefit of bringing practitioners together while retaining their freedom to influence the conditions of their work. This webinar will touch on the history of co-operative practices as well as share stories and experiences of two pioneering Canadian architectural firms structured in this model, PIVOT: COOPÉRATIVE D'ARCHITECTURE (Montreal, est. 2017) and ARISE ARCHITECTS CO-OPERATIVE (Ontario, est. 2019).

This webinar will explore the co-operative’s beginnings, experiences, and visions, as well as inspire alternate futures for architectural practices.

Learning Objectives:

At the conclusion of this session, participants will be able to:

  1. Integrate a co-operative model as an alternative and inclusive way to structure an architectural practice.
  2. Compare the basic business structure and culture of a co-operative architectural practice.
  3. Explain the basic regulatory aspects of a co-operative architectural practice.
  4. Use the experiences of two of Canada's pioneering architectural co-operatives to integrate aspects of their model to its architectural practice.
