Introduction

The Certificate of Professional Experience is an alternative online recording format to the standard Professional Experience and Development Records sheets, which may be used, with permission from the Part 3 Professional Studies Advisor, for Part 3 candidates with substantial experience or training or who have gained Part 1 and Part 2 equivalent qualifications outside the UK.

Candidates using the AA Certificate of Professional Experience in place of PEDRs must also provide a case study or set of micro-case studies based on projects listed in their certificates. Refer to the Part 3 prospectus for further guidance on this.

The Certificate of Professional Experience must be signed by an employer’s representative to confirm the candidate has undertaken the activities recorded overleaf whilst in their employment. A letter of support from the employer to accompany the Certificate would also assist the Part 3 Examiners.

Supervision of experience must be by an architect or other registered construction professional in the jurisdiction in which experience has taken place

A separate Certificate must be submitted in respect of each employment in which the candidate has obtained professional experience.
