This multinational agreement set in motion the progression toward the mutual recognition of
architecture and engineering accreditation. The major focal point was to attain the substantial
equivalency of accredited engineering degrees among the respective signatory countries. The
accrediting bodies of eight countries—Australia, Canada, Hong Kong, Ireland, New Zealand, South Africa,
UK, and US—were the original signatories. Additional countries are accepted as signatories every year.
A mutual recognition agreement (MRA) is an accord by which two or more accrediting entities
agree to provide equal recognition to all programs accredited separately by each one of the entities who
are parties to the accord. With regard to accreditation in engineering, engineering technology and
computing, several MRAs have been signed in the last three decades. This list of international accords
and declarations represents major milestones in transnational recognition of accreditation decisions.
The motivation behind these agreements is the growing need to ascertain that degrees of graduates
from programs in one country or region be recognized in another.

5. Canberra –
Operational from January 2010 ’…to facilitate international mobility of graduates in architecture
and contribute to improving the quality of architectural education through benchmarking…’ between
the founder signatory authorities, Australia, CAA, Canada, China, Korea, Mexico and USA with
established systems agreed to be substantially equivalent. Within Canberra the US now automatically
gives CAA directly validated qualifications 155 of the 160 credits required to pass the EESA-NCARB
Evaluation for International qualifications in architecture (‘piggybacking’ of qualifications recognised
through CAA system validation is not allowed) .
This accord does not address matters related to professional registration or licensure.
The first initiative for this accord was in May 2006 by the National Architectural Accrediting
Board (NAAB), the National Council of Architectural Registration Boards (NCARB) and the American
Institute of Architects (AIA). Architectural accrediting agencies from the U.S., Australia, Canada, China,
Mexico, Korea, and the United Kingdom attended the first roundtable, as well as leaders from the
Commonwealth Association of Architects and the International Union of Architects (UIA). Canada hosted
the next Roundtable in 2007, and in April 2008 the following accreditation bodies signed the accord:

As for yung sa GATS, scribd siya galing. Pero naidownload ko naman as word file. Forward ko na lang din
yun sa iyo via email as word file entitled “GATS”.
