ARE 5.0 Transition

5.0

With ARE 5.0 here and 4.0 phasing out by June 30, 2018, NCARB's transition calculator provides a nice comparison of the two series. For instance, Site Planning & Design passed under 4.0 would receive credit within 2 divisions under 5.0:

  • Programming & Analysis 
  • Project Planning & Design
Even if the transition doesn't impact your testing situation, the calculator is useful to understand how 4.0 divisions are mapped to 5.0. The content itself is not substantially different. Will ARE 5.0 change your strategy?
