(PCATP )
Criteria and Proforma for Accreditation/Revalidation of
Architectural & Town Planning Programs
1. OBJECTIVES OF THE ACCREDITATION PROCESS
To raise standards and promote excellence in architecture and town
planning education.
• To enhance the provision of high quality professional programs and
encourage ingenuity, innovation and contemporary relevance in course
and teaching methods to strengthen the overall education of architects.
• To promote PCATP established standards and systems of
architectural and town planning education in the country.
• To enhance the stature, credibility and influence of the Institute and
its members.
• To increase the number of architects and town planners eligible for
PCATP Membership who are qualified with recognized standards.

THE ACCREDITATION PROCESS
Zero Visit
Program submits Zero Visit Performa for acquiring No Objection
Certificate (NOC) from PCATP to launch the program. Visit is
scheduled once all the minimum requirements are met.
Interim Visit
Interim visit is conducted in 3rd year (Architecture) and 2nd
year (Town Planning) of a new program to evaluate the
progress achieved as per the recommendations in the zero
visit report. However until this visit takes place an inspector
(local) appointed by the accreditation board will conduct
periodic random follow up visits to monitor the progress.

Accreditation
The program applies for Accreditation visit in Ninth Semester
(Architecture) and Seventh Semester (Town Planning) for the first
graduating batch by submitting the Accreditation Performa along
with the required documents.
Revalidation
The program is required to revalidate its accreditation status by
submitting an Annual progress report. Visiting Board members
will evaluate the progress during the visit to the Institute.

ACCREDITATION PARAMETERS
One of the major objectives of PCATP is to encourage
institutions to continually strive towards the attainment of
excellence. The evaluation processes are so designed as to
facilitate identification of the strengths and weaknesses of the
programs under accreditation. We expect that this will help the
institutions in improving the quality and effectiveness of their
programs.
Launching of New Programs
It is mandatory for Institutions desirous of starting an
Architectural or Town Planning program to acquire NOC (no
objection certificate) from PCATP before announcing the
admissions.

Visiting Team members.
The team will consist of 2 academician *, 2 practicing
architects or town planners ** (as the case may be), one HEC
representative and the Registrar PCATP.
*In case of Architectural Program, a senior professional having maximum of
15 years of experience in the profession plus 10 years of teaching
experience is required. Whereas in the case of Town Planning Program, the
academician must have 10 years of teaching experience along with 3 years
of professional experience. The academician should not be a full time
faculty at any of the architectural program and should not be a member of
Executive Committee or Accreditation Board, PCATP.
*At least 15 years of professional experience, should not be affiliated
to any educational institute awarding architectural or town planning
degrees in any capacity i.e. faculty, Board of Studies, governing
Body etc. of an Institution and should not be a member of Executive
Committee or Accreditation Board, PCATP.

ACTIVITIES DURING THE VISIT
Normally, the visiting team requires two days to complete the
evaluation of a program. However, when required, the visit may
be scheduled for three days. All relevant documents and
information should be made available on the visit day for scrutiny
and analysis. Qualitative facts such as professional attitude,
commitment to academics, conduciveness of environment and
morale of the faculty and students should also be taken into
consideration while evaluating the program.

REQUIRED FACILITIES
Both systems highlight the need for a studio culture and expect
to see dedicated studios for all students. NAAB require a
report from the university on studio culture, where as the RIBA
rely on the visiting board report including feedback from staff
and students. Both institutes will also comment if the building
facilities are not up to the require standards, or need
maintenance, and such comments can help schools get the
facilities they require. In 2009 Cornell University, one of the
premier schools of architecture in the US was warned that if
they did not improve their facilities to comply with the NAAB
requirements they would not be able to gain accreditation on
the next visit. (Basulto D., 2009). In addition to studios,
universities are expected to have up to date computer
laboratories with software, well-stocked libraries, wood and
metal workshops, model making and printing facilities.

The NAAB Student Performance Criteria (SPC) falls into three
realms. Critical Thinking and Representation: with ten sub sets,
Integrated Building Practices, and Technical Skills and

The basics
Education
Most states require a professional degree in architecture: a Bachelor or Master of
Architecture. There are 100+ accredited professional degree programs in the
United States and Canada alone. Not sure if your degree is accredited? Check
the list maintained by the National Architectural Accrediting Board (NAAB).
Experience
All states require that you work under a supervising architect. During this time you’ll
get valuable work experience that will help you advance your career and earn credit
in the AXP. AIA offers resources to help you complete AXP.
Examination
You’ll also need to pass the ARE. It’s a multi-part exam that will test your
knowledge and skills in a variety of segments within the practice of architecture.
AIA offers resources to help you pass the ARE.
Licensure
Once you pass the exams and complete the experience requirement, you can
register for a license. Individual states grant licenses. You can become licensed
in multiple states.
Compare licensure requirements of the 54 jurisdictions to decide where to get
your initial license. Typically, to maintain or renew your license, you’ll need to
earn continuing education credits each year.

Preparing for the ARE
One of the primary requirements for becoming a licensed architect is passing the
Architect Registration Exam (ARE). The exam covers six practice areas: practice
management, project management, programming and analysis, project planning and
design, project development and documentation, and construction evaluation,
preparing you for professional practice in the US.
AIA offers a variety of resources to assist you in passing the exam and getting that
architect stamp you’ve been working for. Reach out to your local AIA chapter to find
study groups, prep sessions, and study materials. Working alongside other AIA
members can ease the sometimes daunting task of preparing for the exam.
AIA Contract Documents study resources
Understanding the AIA Contract Documents is a critical part of ARE. The AIA
provides sample documents for ARE candidates to use while studying for the exams.
Check out the links below to learn more about the AIA Contract Documents in the
ARE and other documents that are available to you and your firm.A-Series B-Series C-Series G-Series
