Intern Program

The Intern Program (also known as the Internship in Architecture Program or IAP) is a standardized process adopted by the ten provincial associations of architects in Canada for  admission to the profession. The Intern Program has three components: 

• Education

• Experience

• Examination

Education
Before entering the Intern Program, an individual's academic qualifications must be certified by the Canadian Architectural Certification Board (CACB). This is a straightforward process for graduates of a CACB or NAAB accredited program. Application forms are available from the MAA or click here.

Candidates are eligible to enroll in the Intern Program as a Student Member of the MAA once they have completed at least 50% of a CACB accredited degree program (or Part 1 of the RAIC Syllabus Program).
