UK, October 24, 2019 – BTL, creators of the Surpass Assessment Platform which has delivered over 24 million high-stakes summative assessments are delighted to announce that Association for Project Management (APM) have selected Surpass as their e-assessment platform for the online hosting and proctoring of their innovative range of project management qualifications.
The range of qualifications developed by APM, the chartered body for the project profession, offers a progressive structure for career development, from the fundamentals of project management (APM Project Fundamentals Qualification) through to qualifications aimed at established project professionals (APM Project Professional Qualification).
These qualifications offer a clear route to achieving Chartered Project Professional (ChPP) status, the chartered standard that demonstrates technical knowledge, professional practice and ethical behaviour. The transition to Surpass will see APM able to offer on-screen testing to candidates sitting the APM Project Fundamentals Qualification (PFQ) or Project Management Qualification (PMQ).
“As the largest professional body for project management in Europe, APM is leading the way in the project management profession. Our qualifications are a key benefit to our members providing a progressive structure for career development and, in a profession, which is reliant on technology, our assessments need to remain robust and reflect our modern, progressive approach. As the leading source of knowledge and insights for the project profession, having the right technology in place is essential for us as we work to promote the power of the project profession for good.“
