New South Wales / ACT

The NSW/ACT Branch of the ACA is active in providing information to, and advocating on behalf of, its members.

ACA NSW/ACT aims to build community and provide platforms through which we can all support each other. We have a steadily growing membership, including a considerable member base in the ACT, and represent the full spectrum of practice sizes and types – from sole practitioners to large firms.

Based in Sydney, the Committee meets monthly. We visit our valued ACT members twice a year to hear how they are faring and increase our understanding of how we can assist them.

Advocacy

In advocating for members and the profession, ACA NSW/ACT  works closely with allied industry organisations, such as the Australian Institute of Architects and the NSW Architects Registration Board.

For example, during the development of the Design and Building Practitioners Act 2020 (DBP Act) we presented a united voice with Institute’s NSW Chapter. We will continue to have a united voice on matters impacting the profession where appropriate. We also have a relationship with the Master Builders Association and are working on developing closer ties and exchanging ideas.

Events

ACA NSW/ACT runs events face-to-face in Sydney, while our online webinars provide access for all – including ACT and country members. We were also able to respond quickly during the pandemic lockdown, and move all events online.
