Finally 'Chartered' via the Experience Assessment route!

Miriam

So.... I have been an Associate member for years as, for personal reasons, I didn't finish the whole of what is now the Level 7 course.

I finally got my act together and decided to apply for the experience assessment rather than start the whole course again and still have to have the assessment!

Results are through today - and I've passed!! Finally Chartered!!  Such a relief!  We are going through an incredibly busy time at work and so much went wring while I was completing the assessment.  The hard work paid off!! 

Won't be able to celebrate for a few days but definitely deserve a glass of bubbly!

So if you are thinking about routes - go for it - the timing is never right - and it is a considered cost!  But - I think it was worth it in the end!

  • Hi Miriam.. just saw your post albeit a bit late .. I have just started on my EA and needless to say its very daunting.. I have read through most of the threads and your advice to others.. for the case study do we need to follow any specific format and also is there any other websites you recommend before attempting the case study.. since it's a 2week window being quite nervous about starting it .. also any advice about the final personal discussion and does it really go on for 3.5hrs. many thanks and looking forward to your advice..

    Hi Tania,

    For the case study, I would recommend you do it in the format that you feel comfortable - I did mine in the headings of what the question asked us to address.

    I didn't look at other websites. I used my own knowledge and experience. But that's not saying that you shouldn't.

    In relation to the personal discussion - mine took about 3 hours, maybe slightly more, and we had a short break in between.

    I was in the same boat as you, but try not to worry.... have faith in yourself and your ability. Good luck - let us know how you get on!

    Hi Miriam, I'm on the final day of reading through my case study and, like others, really anxious that I've got enough in at the right level. I'm finding it really hard to fully define the cost of my proposals and more importantly the financial value they'll bring to the organisation - how can you put a value on defining an effective strategy and structure for example? Any thoughts or insights into the level of details required gratefully received.

    Hi Sally,

    When I did the case study, if there were areas that I could not out a financial figure, I made sure that I could justify why. That was fine.

    Hope that helps. Good luck!
