Continuing Education

NCARB assists architects in keeping their professional skills and knowledge up to date through its Professional Development Program of structured self-study courses. Since its implementation in 1993, the program has grown to include over 25 monographs and six mini-monographs.

Overview
In increasing numbers, registration boards are requiring evidence of lifelong learning when architects apply for registration renewal. NCARB's Professional Development Program recognizes the need for a convenient and affordable continuing education resource.

Continuing Education Requirements
Most jurisdictions require that architects complete some form of continuing education to update their skills to renew their license. Learn each state's requirements.

Value of NCARB Monographs
NCARB monographs are one of the most cost-effective ways for architects to fulfill their state and AIA continuing education requirements.

NCARB Monograph Series
NCARB has over 25 titles in its monograph series that count toward AIA and jurisdictional continuing education requirements.
