APMP Foundation face-to-face - 16 June - London

APMP FOUNDATION TRAINING & EXAM

LONDON – 16 JUNE 2021

Thanks for enrolling in this course. Here’s all the information you need to know.

1.     Pre-course actions

There are a couple of things we’ll need from you at least one week before the course:

  • If you’ve not already done so, you’ll need to provide us with your APMP membership number. If you’re not yet a member, you can join via APMP’s website, choosing “Individual” membership.
  • Please let us know if you have any special requirements of which we should be aware (e.g. dietary requirements, dyslexia, access needs or handouts in large print format).

2.     Course logistics

This course will take place in The Dock meeting room at The Dixon Hotel, 211 Tooley Street, London SE1 2JX. (It’s a short stroll from London Bridge station, or across the river from Tower Gateway.)

Coffee will be available from 08:30, and we’ll start the course at 08:45 prompt. If you’re delayed for any reason on the morning, please contact your trainer, Jon Williams, on +44 (0)781 333 2294.

We’ll finish presenting the course material no later than 16:15, giving you a short break before you sit the exam. We’ll then mark your papers - and let you know your result before you leave at the end of the afternoon. The event will finish by 18:00. Please don’t book travel that requires you to leave the venue earlier than 18:00 as we can't cut the exam or marking short.

We’ll provide refreshments, including lunch, during the day.

Casual clothing is fine.

3.     Exam structure and background

The assessment comprises a multiple-choice examination of 75 questions in one hour. The pass mark is 42 and you’ll be told your result on the day before you leave. The exam is paper based (i.e. not online; there’s no need to bring your laptop).

The exam is ‘open book’, so you may consult any materials that you find useful – including the course handouts, study guide and APMP glossary. We’ll provide printed copies of everything on the day.

The exam board requires us to check photographic ID for candidates before you sit the exam. Please bring something suitable along – driving licence, work identity badge etc.

4.     Pre-course reading

Although the course covers the information you’ll need for the exam, you may find it useful to familiarise yourself with a few key sections from APMP’s “Study Guide” before the day.

The guide is available to APMP members via this link, using the same email address and password that you’ll have set up for the main APMP website. Please have a look at the chapters on:

  • Introduction to the Business Development Lifecycle
  • Strategy and Win Themes
  • Value Propositions
  • Gate Decisions
  • Review Management
  • Scheduling
  • Content Plans.

This is recommended not mandatory, and there’s no need whatsoever to learn it all by heart! And don’t worry about trying to print off the guide: we’ll give you a copy of the Study Guide book on the day.

If you want to know more about the certification scheme, there’s a short brochure on the APMP website. 

5.     Cancellation policy

We appreciate the pressures of life in bids and proposals, but we're sure you appreciate that we can't end up being left out-of-pocket for costs we can't recover.

At any time, you can nominate a colleague to take your place, at no cost. Otherwise:

  • If you cancel your place more than seven days in advance, you’ll receive a full refund.
  • If you cancel seven or fewer days before the event, or don’t turn up on the day, you won’t receive a refund.

6.     Further information
