Emeritus Architects

What are the qualifications? You must be at least 65 years old, you must have been licensed as an architect for 10 consecutive years in any jurisdiction, and you must be retired from active practice. "Retired from active practice" means "not engaging or offering to engage in the practice of architecture" as defined in Section 40-3-20 of the Architectural Registration Laws.

As an Emeritus Architect, you cannot consult, you cannot serve as an expert witness, you cannot advise clients, design, or perform any work that could be defined as architecture.
