May 2008 ARE 4.0 ReminderIf you have not PASSED any division of ARE 3.1, the last date to schedule an ARE 3.1 division is May 13, 2008 and the last date to test is May 15, 2008. Anyone who has not passed a division of ARE 3.1 prior to these deadlines will test in ARE 4.0. Whether you transition to ARE 4.0 or stay in ARE 3.1 is solely based on the date you test, not the date you receive your score report. If you have passed a division of ARE 3.1 prior to May 15, 2008, you will be unaffected by these scheduling restrictions. The first day to schedule an ARE 4.0 exam is May 18, 2008. The first day that ARE 4.0 will be available in the test center is July 1, 2008. March 2008 The Spring 2008 Columns Newsletter has been posted.

July 1999 Continuing Education The North Carolina Board of Architecture has implemented a modest continuing education requirement - only 12 hours of health, safety and welfare courses per year. The Board’s current list of approved providers of CE credits has been posted on the NCBA web site. However, architects should be aware that any program or learning experience that they, as a professional, believe provides pertinent HSW education is acceptable for CE credit, as long as it can be supported and documented. Insomuch as Continuing Education is a phenomenon related to widespread national and political concerns regarding professional capability and accountability, the NC Board has tried to enact reasonable requirements that provide practical options. While some states have mandated a limited group of providers from which to select, North Carolina has crafted our Rules with the maximum flexibility needed and personal control for the architect to select experiences that will prove most useful and educational for each individual’s specific situation. Therefore, the Board encourages each licensee to exercise suitable professional judgment when selecting HSW learning experiences. Each year on your annual renewal form you will be asked to indicate whether or not you have complied with the Board's rules on continuing education. You must certify that you did (or did not) comply. You are not required to submit documentation of your continuing education with the renewal form. However, you are required to keep a log detailing it. Should you be audited, you will be required to show proof of continuing education. Board staff can not determine if a course is appropriate or acceptable
as HSW. You must make this determination on your own, as a professional.
