The Ghana Institute of Architects (GIA) has completed the final stage of its 2026 Professional Practice Examinations for architects, with results awaiting regulatory certification. Professor Daniel Duah, Chief Examiner of the GIA Professional Practice Examinations, said the rigorous assessment process was designed to ensure that only qualified and competent architects were licensed to practise in Ghana. He said the examinations comprised three stages to comprehensively assess candidates’ professional competence after completing their academic studies and mandatory practical training. He said architecture programmes in Ghana were jointly accredited by the Ghana Institute of Architects and the Architects Registration Council. Prof. Duah encouraged students to take advantage of practical training opportunities to prepare for professional practice.
