“Thank you for all of your support and guidance thus far, I am so happy to have chosen this MBA program; I cannot tell you how much I have already learned and grown from this experience.”

“I am grateful to SFIA for what I have learned there. It has changed my life. It has opened my mind and expanded my social networking circle. SFIA teachers have inspired me and encouraged me to go farther and dig deeper. I appreciate the organic nature of the organization and dedication that the staff and students have toward education. Fred’s connections to the community and architectural circles provided opportunity for me and opened a door at Skillful Means for me. I have learned even more about natural building, which was in line with what I was learning at SFIA. It has been a blessing to me and I am excited to receive my diploma, which marks not an end, but a new beginning.
Kelly Walter, MA Architecture

“An excellent school that teaches the practices of sustainable architecture and design. The school’s director, Fred Stitt, does a great job coordinating classes and providing the class with resources needed to further their education in green design. For those wanting to begin to learn about sustainable design or need a refresh in practices and information, I highly recommend this school. The tuition is definitely reasonable for what you get from the classes.”
Jason Martell, BA Sustainable Architecture & Design

Fred Stitt brings it “down to Earth”  from “ivory tower” thinking to a practical approach immediately applicable to the practicing architect/engineer.  In that respect; Fred Stitt clearly succeeded in his objective that day to “present, clarify and integrate the best and latest in ecological design technology.”
