Features: This book includes the International Standard of Recognition for Professionalism in Architectural Practice issued by the International Union of Architects (UIA), along with policy recommendations and guidelines. It covers seven policy recommendations: architectural education assessment, practical experience, training, and internships; registration, licenses, and certifications; ethical and behavioral standards; continuing professional development; architectural practice in host countries; intellectual property and copyright. The recognition document and its corresponding policy recommendations aim to ensure the quality of professional qualifications and service levels of architects worldwide, while providing a basic framework and consensus for mutual recognition negotiations between countries and regions, as well as for the globalization of architectural professional services. This book holds significant reference value for the establishment and improvement of architectural professional standards in China. The standards in the book can also serve as an "international language" for domestic design firms and foreign architects collaborating on projects, helping to coordinate and resolve various issues between the two parties. Additionally, it holds long-term significance for Chinese architects to provide cross-border professional services. This book is suitable for architects and students and faculty in architectural programs.
