Getting started in the right way on your APC Journey is fundamental to success on the APC process. APC Academy can ensure you are focussed in the right areas for your APC and the key milestones you need to maintain during this process.
Ongoing Document Review
Its easy to digress from what you need to present to the Final Assessment Panel. APC Academy can provide ongoing submission document review during key stages of your APC. Only active assessors will review your documents from APC Academy, so you know this is front line advice and guidance for your document.
Case Study Review
This support activity focuses on the structure, content and quality of the chosen project and key issues contained within the report, ensuring compliance with the guides. A full feedback document is prepared to allow the candidate to address any concerns raised by an APC Academy reviewer. This service also highlights some questions and topics that may be asked at Final Interview stage.
Summary of Experience & CPD Review
This support activity focuses on the content of the Summary of Experience by reviewing the information presented by the Candidate and providing clear guidance in relation to aligning the document with the RICS expectations. The service also highlights some questions and topics that may be asked at Final Interview stage. We can also carry out this service for those not carrying out structured training but submitting for preliminary review.
Prelim Review Guidance
If you have been marked as “not ready for final assessment” on your prelim review then we can help you interpret and comply with the content of your preliminary feedback report to ensure you can proceed on to final assessment.
Final Assessment Questions
APC Academy can review your submission document and provide a list of possible questions based on the content of your document.
Pre-Application Assessment Interview
This activity helps to corroborate readiness to apply for the APC Final Interview. It provides a competency check with the candidate in line with the stage of the process.

Mock Interviews
APC Academy can offer a full one hour mock interview with a panel (Assessor and Chairperson), followed by feedback on the candidates’ performance. The interview is based on the submitted documents. This will provide invaluable experience for the candidate and allow time to address any areas raised prior to the actual Final Interview. Mock interviews can be held face to face and by Skype/Facetime if required.
