CIAT has a collaborative agreement with the Association of Architectural Technologists of Ontario (AATO). In order to facilitate and simplify the process of mutual recognition of qualifications and experience with regard to the discipline of Architectural Technology across borders, CIAT and AATO have established a Memorandum of Agreement (MoA) which aims to mutually recognise the members of each organisation and their respective qualifications and experience through joint development, commitment and action.
The MoA allows the two organisations to share information, knowledge and best practice, thus promoting the skills, competences and professions of the members of both CIAT and AATO. The objective is to remove barriers and allow for free movement of people and services and easier transferability of skills. This Agreement supports the opportunity for each organisation’s members to join the other organisation subject to a mapping exercise being carried out to demonstrate that each organisation’s members meet the required criteria of the other organisation and therefore to work in a country different from that in which they qualified, subject to the necessary visa/work permit requirements of each country.
