Ngā mihi o te tau hou | Happy new year!
We have an exciting opportunity for members to kick off 2025. NZILA is seeking expressions of interest from experienced and qualified practitioners to contribute to the development of updated Visual Simulation Guidelines. This project aims to expand on and replace the existing 2010 Best Practice Guide on Visual Simulations (BPG10.2); ensuring that the standards and practices in visual simulations within landscape architecture are reflective of current practices, industry needs and technological advancements.
The full information is available in the Call for Expressions of Interest on the NZILA website, including the overview and scope of the project and EOI submission instructions.
For questions or more information please contact Simon Button, details in the document. Submissions should be sent with all relevant documentation to admin@nzila.co.nz by 5pm on Friday 28 February.
For Registered Members, this project is eligible for CPD points at 2 points per hour (formal points) to a maximum of 20 points per year, under category 1a.
