Level 1

Test library / All tests / Architecture & Design

The Architectural & Design Test assesses a candidate’s applied technical proficiency, regulatory awareness, and coordination capability across the architectural delivery process. It evaluates how well individuals translate design concepts into buildable, compliant, and coordinated technical solutions, ensuring precision, constructability, and adherence to international standards. 

Unlike purely theoretical design assessments, this test measures real-world architectural technology competence, combining regulatory understanding (e.g. Building Regulations, fire safety, access) with practical knowledge of materials, detailing, Building Information Modelling (BIM) coordination, and site implementation.  

It is intended for organisations that want to validate both technical skill and problem-solving judgement at the delivery stage of the architectural process.
