The practice act for professional architects directs the department
of regulatory agencies to adopt rules establishing requirements for continuing education and also requiring an architect to demonstrate retention of the material presented in the continuing education program or course. The requirement to demonstrate program or course material retention is not typical among licensed professionals in Colorado and is
not common practice in other states.
The bill removes the material retention requirement, allowing an
architect to renew a license upon demonstrating compliance with the continuing education requirement alone, as do all other licensed professionals with continuing education requirements in Colorado.
