An updated version of Bulletin 05: Resignation of Registration is now available. This version replaces the November 2012 edition. Architects, honorary members and associates may choose to voluntarily resign their status for various reasons at different stages of their careers. Bulletin 05 provides information to assist with making that transition.
This revision provides more information, increases clarity and improves the reader’s use and understanding of the relevant issues. The revisions are not a change to the interpretation of the relevant sections of the Architects Act or AIBC Bylaws.
AIBC members and associates are reminded to notify the AIBC of their intention to resign by submitting a written notice of resignation before the February 1 annual renewal deadline. By doing so, registrants resign in good standing and avoid being removed from the register for non-payment of fees. Those individuals considering resigning or revising their status are encouraged to contact the AIBC well before the deadline so that the staff at the institute may provide assistance as necessary.
Those who wish to reinstate their registration with the AIBC at a later time will be responsible, amongst a number of requirements, for reconciling any outstanding fees.
