Aedifice Academy.
Hands-on training for building professionals working alongside agents.
The Academy is where the profession learns to work with Wren. It is taught by the engineers and stewards who built the system, and by the licensed professionals using it every day on real buildings.
Who it is for
The Academy is built for the four professions that carry a building through its life. Owners and asset managers, for whom the record is a balance-sheet instrument. Property managers and operators, for whom the calendar is the product. Engineers and architects, for whom the seal is the responsibility. Attorneys and compliance counsel, for whom the chain of reasoning is the evidence.
Each course is taught with the assumption that the participant already knows the profession. The Academy does not teach building operation; it teaches what changes when a per-building agent is added to the practice, and what does not.
The three foundational courses
Stewardship with Wren
How to assign Wren to a building, how to read its record, and how to keep the record honest as ownership, management, and engineering change hands. Taught against a single case building for the duration of the course.
Compliance cycles in Wren
The recurring filings that define a building’s year. How cycles are tracked, how drafts are prepared, how the review queue is sequenced, and how the chain from rule to filing is preserved in the audit trail.
Reviewing agent work
The licensed professional’s course. How to read a Wren draft the way a reviewer reads a draft from a junior colleague. What to check, what to trust, what to reject, and how to record the reason in a form that survives the reviewer.
Certification track
Participants who complete the three foundational courses and pass a portfolio review earn an Aedifice Certified Reviewer credential. The credential is light by design. It is not a license and does not displace one. It signals that the holder has read a statistically meaningful sample of agent-drafted work, has exercised judgement over it, and has documented the reasoning behind acceptance and rejection.
Firms adopting Wren at scale often require the credential of any professional operating a review queue in their name. The Academy maintains the registry and the audit trail.
Continuing education credit
Academy courses are registered for continuing education credit across the professional regimes we operate in. Architects completing the track receive AIA CES learning units. Licensed engineers receive professional development hours. Attorneys receive continuing legal education credit in participating jurisdictions. Credit hours are listed with each course and are reported on the participant’s behalf.
How to enroll
Individual seats open on a rolling basis. Cohort sizes are kept small so that each participant works against a live case building for the duration of the course. To enroll, or to bring the Academy into your firm as a private cohort, write to us and we will respond within two business days.
Bring the Academy to your firm.
Private cohorts are available for owners, managers, engineering firms, and law firms that are rolling Wren across a portfolio. We teach in your offices, against your buildings.
