Formerly called the '''Intern Development Program''' ('''IDP)'''), the '''Architectural Experience Program''' ('''AXP)''') is a comprehensive training program created to ensure that candidates pursuing licensure in the architecture profession gain the knowledge and skills required for the independent practice of architecture. The program is developed, maintained, and administered by the [[National Council of Architectural Registration Boards]] (NCARB) and is required by most U.S. architectural registration boards to satisfy experience requirements for licensure.
