In April, NCARB and our counterpart in the United Kingdom, the Architects Registration Board (ARB), launched a mutual recognition agreement (MRA), which creates a simplified path to reciprocal licensure for U.S. and U.K. architects. To help architects understand how to take advantage of the agreement, NCARB and ARB experts recently hosted a live webinar and Q&A session.

Watch the webinar on our YouTube channel to see how you can expand your practice internationally.

More About the U.S.-U.K. MRA

The MRA provides a streamlined path to reciprocal licensure for architects in the United States and the United Kingdom. U.S. applicants must hold an NCARB Certificate granted through the standard path to certification, and U.K. applicants must hold Part 1, Part 2, and Part 3 qualifications.
