RIBA Chartered Practices are the only architectural practices endorsed and promoted by the RIBA, through commitments to quality assurance, business management and client service.
Whether you’re a sole practitioner or a larger practice with multiple offices, accreditation sends a strong signal to clients, employees and the wider construction industry that your business is committed to excellence in design and service delivery, and provides you with vital business and marketing support and tools.
