Pros & Cons

Pros Cons

Flexibility: One advantage of the course is that it offers an alternative path to becoming an architect without a university degree. This can be beneficial for individuals who may not have the means or opportunity to pursue a traditional degree program.
Practical advice and guidance: Users appreciate the informative videos and coaching program provided by Ashley. They find the content helpful and appreciate the effort put into creating valuable resources.

Limited job prospects: Some users express concerns about the job opportunities available after completing the syllabus program. They question whether it would be possible to find employment in the field without a traditional degree and if the program would fulfill the required hours for licensure.
Lack of in-person studio experience: Users note that parts II and III of the program need to be taken in person in Canada, which may pose challenges for individuals living outside of Canada. Additionally, those without a drawing or designing background may face difficulties in getting started with the program.
