COAGR. Colegio oficial de arquitectos de Granada

What COAGR. Colegio oficial de arquitectos de Granada does

COAGR — Colegio Oficial de Arquitectos de Granada — is the official professional association (corporación de derecho público) for architects in the province of Granada, Spain, operating under the national CSCAE umbrella and the regional Andalusian CACOA council. Membership is legally mandatory for architects practicing in the province, giving the college statutory authority over professional practice authorization, code-of-ethics enforcement, and project certification (visado). The current Decano is Ismael Rodríguez Pedrosa.

The college's core product is an integrated digital services platform for its members, comprising an electronic visa processing system (Plataforma de Visado, hosted at coa.ondevio.com), an electronic administrative headquarters (Sede Electrónica), a Moodle-based online training portal (elearning.coagranada.es) for continuing professional development including structured BIM certification programs (Revit, ArchiCAD, CYPE, Allplan across levels A1–C1), and a member self-service portal (Mi Perfil). Physical services are delivered from the Granada headquarters at Plaza de San Agustín (Casa Zayas). Specialized commissions cover BIM methodology, expert witness/arbitrator/mediator activities (APAM), and government-employed architects; cultural programming (Salón de los Jueves, the "Periódico de Arquitectura" journal) and a Next Generation EU rehabilitation advisory office (Oficina de Rehabilitación) round out the offering.

Revenue is generated through annual colegiación membership fees (subscription), per-transaction visado fees, paid training courses with tiered pricing for members, non-members, and ETSAG students, and optional ancillary services (reference cost calculation tools, technical documentation). The entity is privately structured as a public-law corporation, not listed, with no parent company, no external investment, no funding rounds, and no disclosed financial statements. Strategic partnerships extend across Caja Rural de Granada (financial services for members), building materials manufacturers (DANOSA, Cosentino, AIRZONE), the ETSAG architecture school, and reciprocal arrangements with Andalusian partner COAs (Málaga, Jaén, Córdoba, Cádiz, Melilla).
