As a reminder, the cost of each ARE 5.0 division will increase from $210 to $235 on October 1, 2018. The total cost of the six-division exam ($1,410) will still be less than ARE 4.0’s total fees.
Candidates can purchase seat credits for an ARE 5.0 division at the $210 price until September 30. Purchase your seat credits in advance of the fee increase if you plan to test within the next twelve months and save $25 per division.
The ARE will continue to address the standard agreements previously identified. Candidates should expect to see additional questions related to the following contracts:
A133-2009: Owner-Construction Manager as Constructor Agreement
A195-2008: Owner-Contractor Agreement for Integrated Project Delivery
A295-2008: General Conditions of the Contract for Integrated Project Delivery
B195-2008: Owner-Architect Agreement for Integrated Project Delivery
