IDP 2.0 was developed in response to the 2007 Practice Analysis of Architecture. In this study, almost 10,000 practicing architects completed an extensive electronic survey to identify the tasks, knowledge, and skills that recently licensed architects, practicing independently, need in order to protect the health, safety, and welfare of the public.

The updates were rolled out in phases with the first phase occurring in July 2009 and the final in April 2012.<ref>[http://www.ncarb.org/News-and-Events/News/2011/10-IDP-2.aspx Final Phase of IDP 2.0 to be Implemented April 2012] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120105224836/http://www.ncarb.org/News-and-Events/News/2011/10-IDP-2.aspx |date=2012-01-05 }}</ref> In July 2015, the IDP was [http://www.ncarb.org/Experience-Through-Internships/IDP2-Experience-Categories-Areas.aspx streamlined] to reduce experience hours required from 5,600 to 3,740. (Some jurisdictions require documentation of additional hours to meet their experience requirement. NCARB recommends that you submit all experience until you have satisfied your jurisdiction’s requirement. See individual jurisdiction’s requirements [http://www.ncarb.org/Experience-Through-Internships/IDP2-Experience-Categories-Areas/Experience-Requirement-by-State.aspx '''here'''].)

In order to address the findings of the 2012 Practice Analysis, NCARB began an in-depth review and overhaul of the experience program to ensure that the requirements continued to adhere to current architectural practice. In addition, NCARB decided to rename the IDP the Architectural Experience Program (AXP) as part of an effort to sunset the term “intern.”

The first step to beginning the AXP is to establish an [http://www.ncarb.org/Experience-Through-Internships/Getting-Started/My-NCARB-Record.aspx NCARB Record]. Candidates are eligible to start earning credit for the AXP once they have graduated from high school. In order to gain experience, they must work under the direct supervision of an AXP supervisor in one of the NCARB approved work settings.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.ncarb.org/Experience-Through-Internships/Meeting-NCARB-Experience-Requirements/Work-Settings.aspx|title=IDP Work Settings|website=www.ncarb.org|access-date=2016-04-07|url-status=dead|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20160304031417/http://www.ncarb.org/Experience-Through-Internships/Meeting-NCARB-Experience-Requirements/Work-Settings.aspx|archivedate=2016-03-04}}</ref>

All experience must be reported electronically to NCARB at least every six months through their NCARB Record, and experience may be submitted more often. Half credit will be given for experience reported that is up to five years old.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.ncarb.org/Experience-Through-Internships/Maintaining-Participation.aspx|title=Maintaining Participation|website=www.ncarb.org|access-date=2016-04-07}}</ref>
