The Northwest Territories Association of Architects regulates the profession of architecture in the public interest.

Architects are trained and experienced professionals specializing in the comprehensive design of buildings and the built environment. NWTAA is mandated by the Government of the Northwest Territories to set the standards for the profession and to ensure any person providing architectural services is duly qualified based on those standards.
