2010 SPP to Become Part of LEA FLEA Only in 2012

FOR THE NOV 2010 FLEA (at 4 sites in the Middle East) AND FOR THE JANUARY AND JUNE 2011 LEA (in Manila), ONLY KNOWLEDGE OF THE OLD (1979) STANDARDS OF PROFESSIONAL PRACTICE (SPP), OTHERWISE KNOWN AS THE ARCHITECT'S NATIONAL CODE (ANC) OR THE UAP DOCUMENTS 201 THROUGH 208, SHALL BE TESTED BY THE PRBOA.

THE NEW (2010) SPP IS ONLY EXPECTED TO TAKE EFFECT BY NOV OR DEC 2010. AS SUCH, THE NOV 2010 FLEA/ JANUARY 2011 LEA EXAMINEES SHALL HAVE NO TIME TO STUDY AND LEARN THE NEW (2010) SPP FROM THEIR MENTOR-ARCHITECTS (AS EVEN THE MENTOR-ARCHITECTS ARE ONLY STARTING TO APPRECIATE THE CHANGES UNDER THE NEW SPP).

THE NEW (2010) SPP CAN THEREFORE FORM PART OF THE LEA IN JANUARY 2012 AND FOR FLEAS SCHEDULED THEREAFTER.

FYI ONLY.
