Titles - "Architect" & "Intern Architect"

RCW 18.08.310: Registration or authorization to practice required

Use of the title “architect” is clarified to allow the following individuals use of the title when identifying his/her profession in circumstances which would not lead a reasonable person to believe the architect is licensed to practice or offering to practice in this state:

1. United States government employees, officers, and consultants while engaged solely in architectural activities for said government and provided they are currently licensed in any U.S. jurisdiction.

2. Instructors at professional degree programs in architecture while engaged solely in teaching activities and provided they are currently licensed in any U.S. jurisdiction.

3. Interns while enrolled in the structured intern program recognized by the Board in WAC 308-12-025(2) may use the title “intern architect” provided they are working under the direct supervision of a licensed architect.

4. Former licensees retired from the practice of architecture may use the titles “Emeritus Architect,” “Retired Architect,” “Architect” or similar derivations thereof provided they were previously licensed in any U.S. jurisdiction.
