History
The Nova Scotia Association of Architects (NSAA) was incorporated in 1932 (Statutes of Nova Scotia 1932, Chapter 15, pages 217-229). The founding members were S.P. Dumaresq, A.E. Priest, H.E. Gates, W.M. Brown and A.R. Cobb. By the end of the year the Association comprised eleven members. It is a professional organization formed to administer and direct the practice of architecture in the Province of Nova Scotia. This is achieved through keeping a register of architects licensed to practice, conducting regular administration and technical meetings, administering NCARB (National Council of Architectural Registration Boards) examinations for potential members, maintaining a disciplinary committee to receive and process complaints, and assisting various governmental bodies in drafting legislation as it might affect architects, their clients, or the public.
