Does graduating overseas count as any hours?

Thanks for your insights Eddie and Stella. I'll be taking the exam tomorrow (my second try after 3 years, a lot has changed) and this video has been helpful. Just want to clarify that the Automatic Mutual Recognition / JobPass is a thing since 2023, where registered Architects may practice in all States and Territories in Australia except Queensland. Please correct me if I'm wrong. The new format for Part 2 is now 80 questions in 120 minutes, still online, and is tested against the new NCSA 2021. The new NCSA 2021 is much more expanded to cover a wide area of an Architect's responsibilities, in greater detail than NCSA 2015. I had a lot of difficulty adapting to the new NCSA but I do believe it is a much clearer system than before, although some of the mandatory performance criterias are a little unfair to be tested against at registration (as each company's client base may not naturally cover those areas). I'm not sure if you're still active here but if you reply I'll try to come back here if I have any new advice. Also the Mukbang format was great!

When you get exp for your log book, do you work as an archi without skill assessment or a draftsman with skill assessment?

Hi. Is it a good idea to undergo first skill asses under architectural draftsman then go to the process of skill assess as Architect?

Just graduated, so I'll be coming back to this in a few years when I begin the registration journey, thank you!

Your video so helpful. Thank You bro

Thanks for your help. Can we have logbook entered from two firms (not simultaneously but one after the other) Also, can we use logbook to add the hrs from year or two before? We use project management app where we generally record our hrs of work..

Good to have you back!

Thank you mate for the good video and info. When should we get those courses before we get ready the portfolio or after. Please for your personal advice. Thanks

thanks for awesome video! it was really helpful :). do you have any suggestion for what subjects to do in high school to become an architect and get into uni in australia?

So so helpful! Thank you

I need help I can't do my aaca overseas qualification assessment

This is one of the best series of explanations and guides for Master students who have minimal knowledge about the industry like me. I’ve learned a lot from the video. Thank you so much for sharing such a great and useful content!

Thanks for the video, very helpful! Was try to download your examples, but looks like it been took down by you and it is unable to download?

hey, is the website still active? I've tried to download some of the examples on the other videos but their not available anymore.

Heap thanks mate! Your videos are really helpful!

I’m 14years old and watching this because I want to be an architect one day and I’m trying to find what good classes in school I should pick to learn the mains about architecture

Hi! I'm an architect from Venezuela I will move to Australia with my Australian girlfriend so I'll be there with a partner visa, is there a possibility to work there As a draftsman or renderist just with the visa rights or I have to be registered as an architect? Thank you so much for your help

Thanks very much for this. You are awesome. Just one question if you don't mind. So you are saying that it would be better to log hours for 3-4 projects only instead of 10 or more projects. But how do you get to 3300 hours with only 3-4 projects? I have been working on small projects like houses, townhouses, pubs for 5 years. I don't think that by choosing 3-4 projects I will be able to make it. Are you talking about 3-4 design (only) projects or 3-4 projects that you have done design and project management? Thanks

Thanks for the information. I am a registered architect in India and have got positive response in skill assessment as an Architecture draftsman.I am planning to shift to Australia next year (as the process got delayed due to Covid) I want to know what is the first step that is needed to be done so as to join an office there? Please suggest.

Hi, thanks for your video, very useful! I’m from Switzerland, I’m a architect with 12 years of practice and I would like to make a work experience in Australia. Do you think there are some opportunities now In Australia (out of Corona virus...)? Thanks. Patrick

thanks for your explanation, I´m planning to move to Australia next year, and Im registered in my country and I have my master in architecture too , I have 3 years of experience of working here but part time or freelancing ,how many years of experience of working in Australia I need to be qualified for exam? do I need a portfolio or just work experience in Australia is enough? tnx in advance

Thanks man, this is really helpful video. I am working in a building design / drafting firm in Melbourne, where I am mostly working autonomously on townhouses / multi-unit residential projects design and DA. Where should I log preparation of architectural drawings for town planning submission? In detailed design 5.3 or documentation (6.3 and 6.4)? Do you consider only construction documentation (working drawings) for 6.3 and 6.4? 2) Do you think I should log my overseas experience (where I was project lead) for 8.3 , 8.4 and 8.5 at executive level? But I don't have any experience in contract administration in Australia.

So Helpful!

Thanks a lot for sharing this. It’s was certainly very motivating and informative

This is a really helpful series! Thanks so much Eddie 👍🏽

Thanks for sharing, Could you give me some tips how can I start from zero. I have no qualification and experience.

Can you help with the material for the exam ?

if your practice has been more on interior projects then is it a block ?

Hi! From what country are you from? I've been planning to have my profession being assessed. Cheers mate!

Hi! Thanks for your videos, they are very helpful, Do you have any suggestion for the portfolio with the 6 projects? maybe an example or tips? Thanks!

Hi, really informative video thank you. I'm planning on taking the NPRA approach. I do have my bachelor's degree but I do not want to go through the masters degree. I do have 7 years of experience but only 8 months with a registered architect. Are you familiar with the NPRA process or do you know anyone who has gone through this process? Most of my work has been residential, does this have any impact on the registration?

Thanks for another good podcast! I'm currently in the registration process. As for your comment on "First Instance", I've gathered that as meaning, "who would be responsible based off the initial analysis of the scenario." In other words, there may be other factors in the scenario that could change who is responsible for something (say the architect and engineer with the roof), but based off just the information you have been given, who would be responsible without closer analysis? Thats the best shot I've got! haha, worth a go for some pizza!

Thanks a lot guys. I found your experiences of what to expect during the exam to be very helpful. Thanks

Really helpful, thank you. I have found that there is not a lot of information on accreditation in Australia which is useful. This helps me a lot cheers 😊
