(a) Licensing by Examination. - Any individual who is at least 18 years of age and of good moral character may make written application for examination by completion of a form prescribed by the Board accompanied by the required application fee. Subject to qualification requirements of this section, the applicant shall be entitled to an examination to determine his qualifications for licensure.
(1) The qualification requirements for registration as a duly licensed architect shall be:
a. Professional education and at least three years practical training and experience as specified by rules of the Board.
b. The successful completion of a licensure examination in architecture as specified by the rules of the Board.
(2) The Board shall adopt rules to set requirements for professional education, practical training and experience, and examination which must be met by applicants for licensure and which may be based on the published guidelines of nationally recognized councils or agencies for the accreditation, examination, and licensing for the architectural profession.
(b) Licensing by Reciprocity. - Any individual holding a current license for the practice of architecture from another state or territory, and holding a certificate of qualification issued by the National Council of Architectural Registration Boards, may upon application and within the discretion of the Board be licensed without written examination.
