- Thank you for your lively talk last Wednesday.
- The students have given very positive feedback about the afternoon session, so, too, our guest from RIBA.
- On Friday, we had a Visiting Board from the RIBA, who will be recommending Candidate Status for Part 3.
- This is good news, and moves us one step closer to a fully accredited course!
