If you would like to explain the rationale for your response, please do so here:
This requirement does not seem appropriate, since it implies extra work, not necessary useful for the registered architects. Can become an unnecessary hurdle on the yearly activity of the registered architects. CPD seminars should be sufficient and useful.

14. Inclusivity of the scheme

Please tell us here:
I refer to the point above

15. Your suggestions on how to improve the scheme

Your suggestions:
Since some practices do have multiple international registers which also follow other CPD programs it would be fantastic if there is some sort of alignment or common database for CPD courses with entities as the AIA for example, where this type of practice profesional development has been on for a while as requirement for registry maintenance. Coordination or validation of some of that content will help the registered architects not to have to duplicate/triplicate efforts on multiple hours that could be applied otherwise to all programs
