2026 window for Principal Designer Register applications close on Friday 30 October

Due to a high volume of applications, CIAT will temporarily pause new applications to the PD Register from Friday 30 October 2026 to Monday 4 January 2027.

During this period, we will continue to accept deferral resubmissions. However, new applications will not be accepted during the closure period.

Applicants planning to submit before the closure are asked to ensure that their applications are complete and provide sufficient evidence of the required skills, knowledge, experience and behaviours. Incomplete applications, or those that do not provide sufficient evidence, will not be forwarded for assessment. Applicants will instead be invited to resubmit their application when the Register reopens in January.
