RAA In Practice | Beyond Borders: Unlocking Mutual Recognition for New Opportunities to Provide Architectural Services in Other Places | NSW ARB

The Session
One of the benefits of registration as an architect is the portability of the ‘licence’. Various mutual recognition agreements, both within Australia and internationally, support architects to work beyond their ‘home’ jurisdiction. This presentation will provide you with some background on the role of the Architects Accreditation Council of Australia (AACA) in negotiating mutual recognition agreements, an overview of the various agreements currently in place for Australian architects, and when and how to take advantage of these.  You will also be introduced to some of the key differences in the architect legislation from state to state in Australia that you must master and comply with when you start working in other jurisdictions.
