Alan's approach including briefing, guidance, support & feedback

  • Offer advice regarding level (CPPD, CPSPM, CPCOM. CCPPM, CPPP) pre-application to AIPM
  • Provide options for sensitive & non-accessible evidence (redact, referee reports, videocon etc)
  • Appreciate candidates situations including where they work in organisations without methodology
  • Clarify evidence requirements (validity, currency, range, quantity, quality…)
  • Support planning and ‘self-management’
  • Point candidates in the 'right' direction(s)
  • Give constructive feedback, when assessing drafts & final evidence
  • Offer guidance when candidates are stuck or have ‘gaps’ in experience or knowledge
  • Feedback strengths and suggested areas for ‘improvement’
  • Respond typically within 24-28 hours (depending upon commitments including travel)
