Route 3

Route 3 is an experiential route for project professionals who do not have a recognised assessment but do meet the eligibility criteria.

In order for you to do this you will need to provide evidence for which there are three steps. You will also be asked to declare that you have kept up to date through CPD (Continuing Professional Development) and give your proposers’ details.

Your application will be assessed at this stage, and if successful you will be invited to an up to two hour interview covering:

  • Professional practice: validating your written submission.
  • Technical knowledge: technical questioning to assess your breadth of knowledge.
  • Ethics.
