We’ve published a Title Protection Toolkit for architects on our website with tools and tips to help you let clients know you are regulated, and help them to spot those who aren’t.
Why protecting the title matters
The law protects the title ‘architect’ and, in doing so, helps maintain professional standards and public trust in architects. Your registered status can reassure potential clients of your skills, qualifications and experience.
You are a collective voice of over 42,000 architects who engage with potential clients on a regular basis. With a few simple actions you can help reinforce the work we do to ensure the title is understood and used appropriately, and distinguish yourself from unregulated competitors at the same time!
Tools for you and your clients
We appreciate that designing buildings, engaging with clients and managing a business doesn’t leave much time for anything else. That’s why we’ve created 6 simple ways you can quickly and easily take action against title misuse.
In the Toolkit, you’ll find:
- a free personalised or plain version of the ARB logo
- a guide on linking to your Architects Register entry
- shareable infographics
- a leaflet for clients
- case studies to show title protection in action
