Architects Learning Groups

Architecture has always been a team effort. An Architects' Learning Group is a group of architects who have come together for the purpose of shared learning. If the Group follows the guidelines produced by the Board, participants in the Group's activities can claim formal CPD hours. Participation is voluntary and Groups are organised by architects themselves. Groups may form on the basis of location, or shared interests. Each Learning Group should identify an 'Administrator' to complete the Form and submit it to the Board.
