Architectural Sign Company Offers AIA-Approved Education Course

Sept. 30, 2011 - PRLog -- Tampa, Fla. (September 2011) – Wayfinding is a comprehensive process developed to familiarize people in a physical space and provide directional assistance from point A to point B.  A central component of successful wayfinding design is signage.  To help educate architects and designers on signage specifications, Creative Sign Designs is now offering their Wayfinding and ADA Accessible Signage AIA Continuing Education Program throughout the United States.

Keeping up-to-date with the Americans with Disabilities Act Accessibility Guidelines (ADAAG) and local accessibility regulations is vital to crafting successful and compliant wayfinding signage design systems.  Creative’s team of wayfinding consultants follow any changes and provide ADAAG-related training to continually educate all associates.

Creative Sign Designs is a Registered Provider with The American Institute of Architects Continuing Education Systems.  Creative’s Wayfinding and Accessible Signage AIA Continuing Education Program is registered with the AIA/CES for continuing professional education as 1 AIA/CES Learning Units (HSW).

Course objectives include: What is Wayfinding, Understanding Wayfinding in our everyday lives, Symbols and Universal Design, Best Practices for planning and implementation of wayfinding, and current ADAAG Guidelines review. Creative has completed numerous ADA interior signage and wayfinding signage system projects for educational institutions, medical facilities, highly recognized organizations and municipalities.

Messages presented on signage systems minimize visitors’ natural confusion when arriving and navigating a new and unfamiliar facility.  The wayfinding design and signage system work together to create a comfortable environment for your visitors.  Clear and legible messages must be in the right location and visible to all - regardless of language or physical ability.

Creative’s team of wayfinding consultants strive to effectively communicate clients’ individual needs and assure the best comprehensive and cost effective signage solutions. Creative’s design, project management, fabrication, and installation teams work to successfully determine the ideal signage solution of every environment.
