The Board's Role in Public Protection

The Board was established to protect the public through the regulation of the practice of architecture, professional engineering, land surveying, landscape architecture, professional geology, professional soil science and certified interior design.

We ensure that individuals meet the education, examination and experience standards for licensure or certification, and maintain their records in good standing.

We take disciplinary action against those who violate the statutes, rules and standards governing the practice of the professions.

The Board's authority is defined by and within certain statutes and rules that direct Board operations and licensee oversight. See the links below:

Serve on the Board as a Public Member

By statute, the Board must include five (5) public members. A public member is defined as "a person who is not, nor ever was, a member of the profession or occupation being licensed, or the spouse of any such person or a person who has not, nor ever has had, a material or financial interest in either the providing of the professional service being licensed or regulated or an activity directly related to the profession being licensed." (MN Statute 326.32 Subd 11).

Anyone fitting the definition above may seek appointment, including those in related industries, for instance: building or code officials or those who have served on boards for their own professions.
