The Seminar Series

The NZIA APL Graduate Development Programme  has developed a seminar programme to suit all GDP Members at whatever stage you are in preparing for registration.

The  programme dates confirmed  to date for  2012 is at the Upcoming Events page.
Below is a summary of the programme.
 
Introductory /Registration Review Seminars

Overview of the Registration Process - New Zealand Registered Architects Board - NZRAB 
Assessors from the NZRAB present on the registration process, a must for new GDP members and a great refresher for all GDP members.
 
Case Study Preparation
When you apply for registration you must submit a comprehensive case study  documenting your professional experience related to the competencies or NZRAB Experience Areas. Some views and practical tips on preparation and content are given by GDP Members that have recently become registered.

Review of Experience Areas
An overview, or introduction to the Experience Areas, as defined by the NZRAB, are also given by our core team of presenters. More in-depth seminars on the Experience Areas are given in the Experience Area Workshops that are held at all Branch locations throughout the year. See details below.

Experience Area Workshops
 
The  Experience Areas are the professional areas you need experience in and knowledge of to become a Registered Architect in New Zealand  Experience Areas 

The Experience Area Workshops are presented by leading NZ architects - John Coop - Director or Warren & Mahoney, Christina van Bohemen - Director Sills van Bohemen Architects and Craig Moller - Director Moller Architects. GDP members are fortunate to have their professional knowledge and experience.

The workshops are  held over a Friday evening and Saturday at  Auckland, Christchurch, Wellington and Queenstown  locations. All of the Experience Areas are covered in these two days explaining what each Professional area is and giving practical and anecdotal examples of how they work in practice. The workshops are presented once a year, at a  location near you. If you have been to the seminars before, it is worth while going again, as the content is updated each year.
 
Workshops and Seminars for Registration Applicants

Professional Conversation Workshops
GDP Members that have completed their applications and submitted their case studies, the next step is the Professional Conversation. The Workshops help applicants prepare  for the Professional Conversation. Recently registered architects discuss their experience and provide advice, and an NZRAB asssesor also presents at the workshops.

In-depth Seminars on selected topics

The NZIA APL GDP Programme has added more seminars on areas that NZRAB has identified as being weak for many registration applicants.
Seminars on Contract Administration and the Resource Management Act have been held to date.

Seminars on-line
