(a) The following
may be acceptable lawful experience subject to the evaluation and approval of
the board:
(1) Field and office training or
experience in architecture under the supervision of licensed professional
architects;
(2) Teaching in an
accredited institution, school, or college of architecture. Maximum experience
credit for teaching shall be one year of teaching third, fourth, or fifth year
courses. One year of teaching shall be considered to be a total teaching load
of twenty semester credit hours or thirty quarter credit hours. The teaching
credit can be applied only where minimum full-time lawful experience
requirements are more than two years;
(3) Intern development program experience;
or
(4) Successful completion of the
practicum experience component in an architecture doctorate degree
program.
(b) Lawful
experience may only be applied to one profession. For lawful experience to be
acceptable, each engagement shall be separate and distinct; dual credit for
engagements that overlap shall not be allowed.
(c) The part-time equivalent of full-time
lawful experience shall be calculated as follows: divide the total hours of
part-time lawful experience by 173.33 hours to determine the number of months
of full-time lawful experience; where:
(1)
2,080 hours equals one year of full-time lawful experience; and
(2) 2,080 hours divided by twelve months
equals 173.33 hours or one month of full-time lawful experience.
(d) Any amount of time in excess
of forty hours per week, whether for one or more supervisors, shall be
considered full-time experience and shall not be considered part-time
experience.
(e) Experience in
responsible charge may be accepted in lieu of lawful experience in the
discretion of the board; provided the applicant possesses experience in
responsible charge in the ratio of 2:1 of the required lawful experience.
