This course, delivered by APC Assessor Chairman and practising Chartered Surveyor David Inman FRICS, outlines what you need to understand in terms of the RICS regulatory requirements to be successful with the RICS Assessment of Professional Competence (APC).

This course has been updated for the 2022 RICS Rules of Conduct that replace:

• The 5 Ethical and Professional Standards

• RICS Rules of Conduct for Firms

• RICE Rules of Conduct for Members

  
  

This course is designed for levels 1, 2 and 3 for the RICS APC competency "Ethics, Rules of Conduct and professionalism".

It is well known that if you get any item of this competency wrong your final assessment, you will not pass and be referred.

All aspects of the RICS Rules of Conduct and their application for both members and firms must be understood and applied to Level 3 for all APC candidates.

This is the second of the DIEM Ltd APC PASS courses that show you how to undertake your APC in a way that it is:

Professional

Achievable, giving you the

Specialist

Skills to succeed.

All RICS members are required to undertake learning in relation to the RICS Global Professional and Ethical Standards at least once every three years and this course, whilst tailored to APC candidates, will support this requirement.
