Adrem is immensely proud to announce that our Chairman, Del Hossain, has been appointed Associate Professor of Architecture in Practice & Project Management at The Bartlett School of Architecture, UCL! We know Del would not want to announce this and ordinarily would let it go unmentioned, but we wanted to take a moment to recognise Del’s commitment to architecture and teaching. He is an advocate for learning across the architectural profession, including as a Trustee at the LSA. Del completed his Part III at UCL in 1993 and was in practice before going into the world of design careers, as well as practicing as a Wellbeing Psychologist. Del has been a module leader since 2019, and we are all super proud of this well-deserved recognition and appointment. Adrem is incredibly passionate about the work we do in supporting students across the industry. This work is underpinned by our Commander + Chief! Please join us in congratulating Del on this development, for someone who develops others both in the office and outside. #architecture#education#appointment#design#students#learning

Moving Client Side
Are you an Architectural Professional that has or is considering a move ‘client side’?...Throughout the month of June, Adrem will be publishing a mini-series of 6 interviews with architectural professionals that have successfully made the transition. We will be covering what prompted the move, how they navigated the transition and the advice they have for individuals that would like to follow their footsteps.The individuals we interviewed now work for housing developers, construction firms, restaurant brands, property developers, real estate tech firms and others. Interview One: Rebecca – AJ100 to Multi-Disciplinary Global ContractorWhat prompted the move?“I had a technical interest in a particular construction specialism & wasn’t getting the concentrated exposure I wanted within architecture. There were also aspects of architecture that frustrated me, like the amount of time you’re expected to spend on design work for competitions that are never going to get built. I’m definitely more of a technical person that likes to see things happen, so it was the right way to go.”Is there anything you miss (or don’t miss) about architecture?“It's definitely not the sociable environment in the same way that you get in practice, like you’re part of a community. Architecture is quite known for it’s sociability, lots of studios will host after-hours drinks, events + so forth, plus there’s this shared experience of all pulling towards a collective goal. When you’re working for a contractor or client, no one’s staying after work to chit-chat, it’s straight in the car + home to the family! People come to work to work, not to make friends”What are the right (and the wrong) reasons to go client side?“If you’re just going for the money + you’re not interested in the role in itself, it’s a bad move. You could be in a job you hate + no option but to take a pay cut to go back to what you enjoy, which will probably feel worse than if you never left!”What advice would you give to someone who wants to make the move?“If you haven’t already, double down on your stage 4+ experience – clients and contractors are looking for this. There are very few “design-led” architects on the client side, that’s not what they’re looking for. Clients are looking for compliance, reality, buildability. So upping your technical knowledge + becoming an expert will stand you in good stead.”“Finally, if you’ve only ever worked in studios, you might get a bit of a culture shock…. I’ve seen more than my share of “1970s”-type humour (think mother-in-law jokes, etc) – might not be everyone’s cup of tea! But it’s fine for me as I knew exactly what to expect & generally just find it funny.”If you’re interested in making a move client-side, developer-side, or contractor-side, send your CV + portfolio to the Adrem Architecture team to start a conversation. We have multiple opportunities available!

Both groups welcomed the resumption of discussions about careers and cultures, in this return to socialisation and most importantly being seen and heard.We were happy to help host this and give advice on CV’s, folios and the changes to the world of employment since the pandemic. The Adrem team welcomed the opportunity to lend a hand and offer our support in getting the wheels of industry and normality turning once again!Architecture can do many things but bringing people together to talk about the future is perhaps one its most powerful contributions to the spirit.Thank you for joining us.#architecture#bartlett#studentsuccess#studentsupport#students#careers#future#employability

Employees can access online courses to 'up their talents' and qualifications from credible sources likeSkillshare,LinkedIn Learning,HubSpot Academy,MIT Open Learning, and more. You can learn these courses at your own pace whenever you have the time to do so.- Micro Training -Microlearning or micro training involves short-term, bite-sized learning activities. Not only are these training activities short in time, but they also enable you to retain learned content in a better way.Microlearning focuses on narrower topics that you can get in short doses and do not take as much time as longer training courses. With this type of training, employees can boost their learning and performance most efficiently.- Mentoring -Getting the expertise of a person who is more experienced than you is a great way to upskill yourself. Employees can shadow their mentors, watch them work, have discussions on the type of skills they want to cultivate, and learn directly from their experience under them.- Coaching -If you want to learn under a coach, you can do so. Coaches receive special training to guide people who are new to the industry or want to elevate their skills.Coaching offers a personalized learning experience that aligns with a worker’s personal goals and helps them realize their potential. This is a highly effective strategy to close your skill gap and work toward your goals in small steps.Why Upskilling Matters...Upskilling is one of the most effective ways to stay relevant in your industry:● Helps you become more valuable to your employer so you can get that salary increase or promotion● Learning something new gives you a fresh perspective and makes your job more satisfying● Allows you to discover new passions● You grow as a person by constantly learning new skills● Enables you to take on more responsibilityUpskilling not only makes you better at what you do, but it also helps you become more valuable to your current and any potential new employer.
