What is the role of professional associations in architecture?

Professional associations in architecture serve as a platform for architects to connect and collaborate with their peers, exchange knowledge and ideas, and access continuing education opportunities. They also help to regulate the profession and ensure that architects adhere to professional standards and codes of ethics. Additionally, professional associations provide advocacy and representation for the profession, lobbying governments and other organizations for better conditions, recognition, and support for architects. These associations also promote public awareness and appreciation of architecture and its contribution to society.
