11. Are there any key points missing from the principles?
Please write your comments in the text box
Essential not to make requirements too onerous.
To be proportionate to the existing skills & experience of the architect
For example those newly qualified will need more training than those who have been longer in the profession whose training needs are more a case of keeping abreast of changing legislation & new products.
Must also take account of very experienced architects who are nearing retirement & wish to work part time and if they restrict themselves to working in certain sectors in which they have proved their competence they should require only minimal training
