This MRA was developed by the National Council of Architectural Registration Boards (NCARB), the Regulatory Organizations of Architecture in Canada (ROAC), and the Comité Mexicano Para la Práctica Internacional de la Arquitectura (COMPIAR). It provides a pathway for qualified architects to obtain reciprocal licensure in the participating jurisdictions of these three countries.
If you meet the eligibility requirements, you can use the MRA to broaden your career while maintaining the high standards of competency, ethics, and public protection that guide the architecture profession.
A step-by-step guide has been created to help navigate the licensure application process in Canada, Mexico, and the United States.
The Guide along with Application Forms and other documentation can be can be accessed here.
French language forms and documentation will be available via ROAC shortly.
