Te Kāhui Whaihanga New Zealand Institute of Architects is committed to providing members with high-quality programmes for Continuing Professional Development.
Why do Architects need CPD points?
In Aotearoa New Zealand, only a person who is a Registered Architect can describe themself as a Registered Architect. To maintain that title, individuals must earn Continuing Professional Development (CPD) points to prove their competency.
The Registered Architects Act states that to meet the minimum standard for continued registration, a person who is currently registered must demonstrate that:
• They can practice competently in their practice area to the standard of a registered architect; and
• They have taken reasonable steps to maintain the currency of their architectural knowledge and skills since the last assessment
Registered Architects meet this standard if, over a five-year period, they achieve a total of 1,000 CPD points, including a minimum of 100 points in each of the following four Units of Competency:
1 Design
2 Documentation
3 Project Management
4 Practice Management
In addition, a fifth category titled Core Professional Development covers subject areas that are relevant to all architects, regardless of the work they do.
The average one-hour CPD session, held by Te Kāhui Whaihanga New Zealand Institute of Architects, is worth 10 CPD points.
