abstract
Accreditation systems for architectural professional education are investigated in Japan, Republic of Korea, and United States of America. In order to be registered as an architect in those three countries, requirements are defined for education, practice and examination. Critical part is ensuring the quality and outcomes of education called accreditation. Through the investigation of site visits by the three accreditation boards, common features and differences of the systems are clarified. As architectural practice expands and evolves in a global context, the portability of professional credentials becomes further more important.
