About Build The Way C.I.C

Build The Way is an innovative nine-month architecture traineeship aimed at young people from underrepresented groups interested in a career designing buildings, spaces and cities. Its purpose is to provide alternative routes into the industry with the ultimate aim of diversifying the profession to ensure cities are designed by those who inhabit them. Historically a career in architecture relies on being able to fund multiple university degrees and having connections within the industry which reduces its accessibility. We want to challenge conventional routes into the profession and be a part of the debate on architectural education. This paid opportunity offers London Living Wage, with no experience-based barriers to application; places are offered to those who can show a passion for design and cities. The programme introduces the architectural design process, with exposure to real construction projects, and other professionals and consultants involved in making buildings, cities and placemaking. Trainees will receive creative and technical support, with mentorship and career advice from industry professionals. Trainees will also be enrolled at the London School of Architecture’s EPQ (worth up to 28 UCAS points for higher education) which presents the practice of spatial design as a collective endeavour with a focus on context and sustainability. Build The Way C.I.C is a collaboration between HUT, GPAD, Morrow + Lorraine and Shedkm.
