This continuing education course provides architects with a practical framework for conducting comprehensive due diligence and feasibility analysis during the earliest phases of project development. By integrating site evaluation, regulatory research, financial considerations, and technical constraints, architects can better inform clients, reduce project risk, and guide decision-making with confidence.

Participants will explore interdisciplinary methods for assessing site conditions, zoning and code requirements, environmental factors, infrastructure capacity, and constructability. The course emphasizes how early-stage analysis directly influences project viability, sustainability, and long-term performance.

Through real-world applications and structured methodologies, this course equips architects to deliver more informed, resilient, and achievable design solutions while strengthening their role as trusted advisors in the development process.
