About

The California Supplemental Examination section prepares candidates for the California-specific exam required before licensure in the state. The CSE is a computer-delivered, multiple-choice exam that evaluates entry-level competence in areas outlined by the California Architects Board’s CSE Test Plan, with an emphasis on the unique requirements, conditions, laws, codes, and practice responsibilities relevant to architecture in California. Candidates focus on applying architectural knowledge within California’s regulatory, environmental, permitting, contractual, and professional practice context.
