The Society of Design Administration (SDA), an Affiliate of the American Institute of Architects, has a rich, long history with founding roots in Miami, Florida in 1959. The mission of SDA has been one of education, but SDA’s vision includes the promotion of professional standards of design firm administrative personnel. To that end, SDA provides educational opportunities, accredited through both SDA and AIA continuing education criteria, for members of the organization and the design community.
