OAA’s Regulatory Notices Updated

OAA’s Regulatory Notices (RN) inform members and the public of the expected professional obligations of OAA members within specific circumstances. They are distinct from other OAA resources like Practice Tips, Guidelines, and Advisories because their content is specific to the regulatory framework for certain aspects of the practice of architecture, and the applicable professional obligations that arise from the legislation and regulations.

Last year, the OAA reviewed various documents to update them accordingly. The goal was to ensure the Association continues to act within its statutory authority, as outlined in the Strategic Plan. Within this context, all existing RNs were examined to ensure accordance with the Act and regulations. Some of the updates are housekeeping-related, but others required more extensive work to focus and ground the information in professional obligations rather than content outside the OAA’s jurisdiction.

The newly updated Regulatory Notices are available in the OAA Website’s Practice Advisory Knowledge Base under the Resources menu.

The OAA’s Practice Advisory Services (PAS) team will continue to work on updating other practice resource documents that may mention the Regulatory Notices.

This article originally appeared in an issue of  Practice Advisory—a newsletter developed by the OAA’s Practice Advisory Services team, which offers numerous resources for both members and the public.

The OAA does not provide legal, insurance, or accounting advice. Readers are advised to consult their own legal, accounting, or insurance representatives to obtain suitable professional advice in those regards.
