Architectural Professional Practice

This qualification leads to exemption from the Architects Registration Board (ARB) and Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) Part 3 examinations.

The Architects Registration Board (ARB)
The term “architect” is a protected title and can only be used by ARB-registered architects in legal jurisdictions extended to or agreed by ARB. The course is relevant to the UK and the EU and has variable transferability beyond the UK and its territories, where the relevant law of the land has precedent.

As part of this course you’ll:
- Be eligible to join the ARB register and apply for chartered membership with RIBA upon successful completion

- Learn through a flexible learning programme comprising a series of study blocks, an office-based examination (where you are employed) and a professional interview

- Benefit from our close relationships with established practitioners, academics and leading consultants and learn from their experience
