The National Council of Architectural Registration Boards’ tenth annual data report, NCARB by the Numbers, provides new insights into the health of the licensure pipeline and the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the field of architecture.

The National Council of Architectural Registration Boards published new data to help inform essential discussions about equity, diversity, and inclusion in the profession—including the current licensure framework.

Alfred Vidaurri Jr., NCARB, NOMA, FAIA, of Fort Worth, Texas, was inducted as the president of the National Council of Architectural Registration Boards at its 2021 Annual Business Meeting.

NCARB released a special report on how the pandemic impacted architectural licensing and mobility in 2020. Findings suggest that the combination of test center closures, transition to remote work, and fluctuating demand for architectural services significantly impacted the career progress of licensure candidates.

Soon, architecture graduates and other qualified candidates will have the flexibility to take the national licensing exam online or at test centers.

Destination Architect provides a roadmap for students looking to jumpstart their career.

As president, Calvani will lead the organization that supports the 55 U.S. architectural licensing boards in their mission to protect the public health, safety, and welfare.

Architects, registration boards, and others join effort to ensure a unified voice for professions in growing debate around licensure, regulation, and public safety.

Over the next 100 days, the organization will share highlights from NCARB’s history, beginning with the launch of a Centennial website on January 22, 2019.
