Abstract
For several years a momentum has been building behind efforts to provide some measure of the professional competence of lighting practitioners. This move is a natural progression towards the kind of professional recognition afforded to architects and engineers and is to be welcomed. Education is the foundation of professional accreditation in allied subjects like architecture. This means an education that extends from undergraduate levels, through post graduate studies and includes professional exams and continuing education to maintain skill levels even after achieving professional accreditation. Architectural lighting design has some way to go to achieve that level of educational integration.
