Practical professional activity; notification of admission to the Bavarian Chamber of Architects

    Graduates in architecture who are not under the supervision of an architect in the course of their work must report the commencement of their work.

    Description

    Since August 1, 2019, it has been required in the field of architecture that the practical professional activity takes place under the supervision of an architect.

    The practical professional activity under the supervision of an architect begins with the actual admission. The Bavarian Chamber of Architects may, but need not, be notified of the commencement.

    If the practical professional activity is not completed in an office or other workplace under the supervision of an architect, supervision may also be provided by the Bavarian Chamber of Architects. In these cases, the Bavarian Chamber of Architects must be notified of the commencement of the practical professional activity.
