Voluntary Associations
RECOGNISED VOLUNTARY ASSOCIATIONS (VAs)
Voluntary Associations (VAs) have an important role to play in the implementation of the Continuous Professional Development (CPD) in that they can offer Category one activities, as well as validate and monitor activities offered (in Category one only) by other providers.
The VAs may charge a fee for validating CPD Category one activities and should ensure broader access and participation of the whole profession. VAs may offer discounts to their members as a further benefit. Whereas it is compulsory for any person offering architectural services to be registered with SACAP, membership of Voluntary Associations is not compulsory. SACAP strongly encourages Architectural professionals to belong to at least one recognised VA.
These associations are autonomous bodies which promote and protect the interests of their members.
The current Voluntary Associations recognised by SACAP are:
