CARPOOLING & COMMUNICATION
We have set up an event specific WhatsApp group for POWER OF COMMUNITY, which all delegates are invited to join. This can be used to facilitate carpooling arrangements between attendees, communicate event information and advise of any last-minute changes.

CPD
There will be a total of 6 formal CPD points available across Friday 13th March. The relevant performance criteria will be published here and RAA will provide all attendees with a certificate for formal CPD following the event. The Board of Architects requires participants maintain a record of learnings in relation to identified competencies and for these to be uploaded with the certificate.

Delegates can make their own assessment for informal CPD for fringe events.
