Celebrating 25 Years of the American College of Healthcare Architects

25 Years of Certification Excellence in Healthcare Architecture

We are thrilled to announce that the American College of Healthcare Architects (ACHA) is celebrating 25 incredible years of shaping the future of healthcare architecture! 

Over the past quarter of a century, ACHA has evolved into the trusted professional certification organization for healthcare architects, proudly offering the only board certification recognized by the American Institute of Architects (AIA). Our journey has been one of growth, innovation, and an unwavering commitment to excellence.

Today, ACHA certification represents more than just a credential—it’s a mark of distinction that indicates healthcare architects have the expertise, vision, and creativity to design environments that are safe, functional, and innovative. 

Beyond certification, ACHA fosters a vibrant community where industry leaders connect, share ideas, and expand their knowledge. As we celebrate this milestone, we reaffirm our commitment to advancing the future of healthcare architecture with every certified professional.

A Year of Celebration

As we commemorate our 25th anniversary, we are excited for a year filled with special events, insightful content, and opportunities to connect with fellow certified architects. Throughout the year, you can look forward to:

  • Special Events to celebrate with certified peers and industry leaders
  • Exclusive Social Media Content memorializing our 25-year history
  • 25th Anniversary Party – the culminating event – an in-person grand anniversary party at HCD 2025!
  • And more!

Keep an eye out on our email announcements and LinkedIn page for more details on these exciting happenings. We encourage everyone to join in the celebration on LinkedIn by sharing ACHA memories and photos from the past 25 years using the hashtag #25YearsOfACHA.

Here’s to continuing to support the architects who shape the future of healthcare environments!
