There is a relationship between the two in that a good IA will think
beyond the page to the overall structure of the information, including
the semantics of the content and relationships between content items.
Good IAs care deeply about web standards and love the flexibility that
designing with web standards allows ;)
Bruce (and others) - let me know privately if you want to know something
more specific about IA.

IA is a completely separate discipline, which - to be honest -
has nothing to do with web standards (so don't be surprised if
this thread gets closed fairly quickly). To over-simplify: IA looks
at how to structure and organise your data/information; even more
boiled down: what's your site's navigation like, what bits should
you have on your pages, etc. IA crosses over and intertwines with
usability.
