Anyone hold or pursuing an MRICS Designation? How does it compare to an MAI designation?

I've got both. Currently, the MRICS is primarily useful when dealing with European and Middle Eastern clients who recognize it. RICS offers reciprocity for the MRICS with the MAI. RICS is really pushing growth in the US as an interdisciplinary organization. It will be interesting to see how well it succeeds. IMO, the AI should be looking over its shoulders.

I also hold both disignations for the same reasons PL has given.

How has the designation been a benefit? Do you get more work or questioned less?

My MRICS was just approved and next is the Fellow designation.

My MRICS was just approved and next is the Fellow designation.

What was the cost of a MRICS designation? Did you use their reciprocity path?
