«Professional improvement is an actualization of architects’ own knowledge and skills, which are necessary for their professional activity. And it is great that today the most leading specialized institutions of higher education, which without exaggeration can be considered as architecture schools, have been given the opportunity to develop and use in practice the programs for improving the qualifications of architects», emphasized Nataliia Kozlovska.

It should be noted that every five years architects must update their knowledge and skills necessary for professional activity through advanced training, which is a necessary condition for the indefinite validity of their qualification certificates.
