ExAC (Examination for Architects in Canada)

Excerpt from the Ontario Association of Architects website: “For your information in October 2006, The Alberta Association of Architects (AAA), the Ontario Association of Architects (OAA) and the Ordre des architectes du Quebec (OAQ) advised their memberships of the work being carried out in regard to the design and development of an alternate ‘Canadian made’ exam. The two day long pencil and paper exam, being developed exclusively by the provincial regulatory bodies, seeks to ensure relevancy, effective delivery, and administrative control of the complete professional competency testing process.” The debut of this new Canadian made alternate exam is targeted for late 2008 / early 2009.
