The ENACA is a network of Competent Authorities for the Architectural profession. The purpose of the ENACA is to provide a forum for discussion for Competent Authorities with a view to helping administrative cooperation and consistency in implementing the DIRECTIVE 2005/36/EC on the recognition of Professional Qualifications (PQD).
The Network also considers issues of cooperation and consistency in implementing the Services Directive 2006/123.
Membership is at an organisational level and open to any Competent Authority (CA) for architects, or request handler, in any EU Member State, EEA State, Switzerland or EU Candidate State.
As well as sharing information via our website and email discussions, the ENACA usually meets three times per year. Approximately half of the Competent Authorities for Archietcts in the EU are already memebrs of the ENACA with numbers growing steadily.
DIRECTIVE 2005/36/EC on the recognition of Professional Qualifications (PQD) provides for mobility of professionals with recognised qualifications within the EEA.
Each profession covered by the Directive has a Competent Authority in each Member State with a legal role in processing applications and making decisions on qualifications and admission to the profession.
