COUNSELLING

The aims are:

To provide professional guidance , mentoring and social support to students during their period of study in a way that allows for continuity and consistency as a complement to that offered by schools of architecture and by practice.

To encourage a simplified route of entry into the Company at the completion of RIBA Part III.

Students must be citizens of the European Community and be following a course in architecture recognized by the RIBA.

The period of the "Indenture" between the Counsellor (a Liveryman) and the student is for a minimum of 4 years (for those with Part I) and for 5, 6 or 7 years for those in 3rd, 2nd or 1st years respectively.

The student pays a one-off "fine" of £25.00 on admission.

The Counsellor supports the student's endeavours during training and, when the period of indenture is complete, informs the Court on the suitability of the student to become a Freeman of the Company.
