Practice Review Program Guidelines

An integral part of the OAA’s mandate to govern the architecture profession in the public interest, the Practice Review Program furthers the goal of quality assurance whenever architectural services are offered to the public. These reviews are designed to proactively assess the practice management capabilities of a holder of Certificate of Practice and to identify any deficiencies that, if neglected, could adversely affect quality of architectural services. Remedial in nature, the Practice Review Program provides personalized guidance aimed at helping members correct deficiencies with their practice management systems in order to avoid serious non-compliance, competence, or misconduct issues.

The guidelines offer an executive summary of this requirement (including types of review), explains the process, and offers resources.
