RIBA Studio Certificate Part 1 - first step towards registration

Certificate Part 1 students work full time in practice during their academic studies. How do people find work in practice when they have not yet completed their Part 1 ? There are an incredibly broad range of skillsets that practices require to bring project proposals to reality. Students on this cohort come from the diverse range of backgrounds, experiences, and skillsets. Students are negotiating the difference between a practice-based proposal and an academic one. Importantly they are discovering the meaning of architecture and its impact and in particular the role they wish to play in the profession. This course of study is a way to progress and expand their current contributions in practice towards greater responsibility. Certificate students graduate with years of experience in practice and the critical knowledge, skills, confidence and focus of a highly experienced Part 1 ready to move into Part 2 of the registration process.

RIBA Studio Diploma Part 2 - next steps towards registration

Diploma Part 2 students have completed their Part 1 and the majority come from having completed a full time Part 1 course and a year or many years in practice. They choose the Diploma so they can continue working full time in practice, often shifting practices for a range of experiences and sometimes even living in a different country within the EEA. Their roles and responsibilities in practice evolve while undertaking the Diploma and we regularly find associates, practice partners and new parents at our graduating ceremony. Students deepen their thinking on real world issues through academia and test the capacity for architecture and fast track their leadership potential while helping to evolve society and our living and built environments towards a better world for all. The Diploma students graduate with years of experience in practice and the critical knowledge, skills, and confidence to move into the final step of registration - Part 3.
