Testing & Mock Interview
Assessment Prep

A 60-minute AI-scored mock interview across all 22 RICS pathways — timed, assessor-led, fully scored. The closest thing to the real panel without the consequences.

60-minute mockAI-scoredAll 22 pathways

Built for your pathway.
Not a template with your name swapped in.

Every pathway on Get Chartered AI includes a dedicated Technical Pathway Module (M11B) — a focused bridge between the core APC curriculum and Module 12's final revision and mock interview simulation.

Where Modules 1–11 build your grounding in the eleven mandatory competencies every RICS candidate needs, M11B sharpens that knowledge specifically for your chosen pathway. It covers your pathway's exact competency structure, the health and safety, accounting, and data source considerations distinctive to your area of practice, and a realistic Module 12 scenario built around the kind of high-stakes, procedurally precise question assessors actually ask on your pathway.

Every M11B module is verified directly against the current official RICS pathway guide — not a generic template with your pathway's name swapped in. If RICS updates a competency structure or a piece of legislation changes, we update the module to match.

Referred Candidates

Support built for your situation.
Not a repeat of the standard curriculum.

The nine modules below are part of the Referred Candidate Recovery Programme. They are only accessible with a Confidence Reset subscription and are not included in standard Annual or Monthly access.

If you've been referred at a previous assessment, Get Chartered AI includes dedicated support built specifically for your situation — not just a repeat of the standard curriculum.

Our referred-candidate content walks you through reading your referral report properly, understanding exactly what assessors scored and why, rebuilding your mandatory competency answers where they fell short, and getting focused mock practice on your specific weak areas before you resit.

It's designed around the reality of a resit: you don't need to relearn everything, you need to fix what didn't land the first time — and go in with a clear, confident mindset instead of dread.

APC Final Sprint

APC Final Sprint

For candidates approaching final assessment who want to focus on what matters most — not a cut-down version of the full programme, but a purpose-built route through the content that determines readiness fastest.

Six stages, each targeting a distinct skill:

1
Understand the AssessmentThe actual interview structure, timing, panel composition and the five-attempts policy — know exactly what you're walking into before anything else.
2
Build Chartered-Level AnswersThe difference between Level 1, 2 and 3 answers with real worked examples, plus how to defend your case study under direct questioning.
3
Check Your ReadinessAn interactive self-check across all 11 mandatory competencies, with direct links into deeper content wherever a gap shows up.
4
Strengthen Your Technical KnowledgeReal, pathway-specific assessor questions from your own technical area, with the full verified pathway module available as a deeper reference.
5
Revise Under PressureRapid revision across every mandatory competency, then real assignment questions to test what's actually retained.
6
Prove You're Ready — Final ReviewThe full 60-minute mock interview experience, plus a realistic assessor scenario specific to your pathway.

Every stage is accessible from day one — no forced sequence. Jump straight into a mock interview to calibrate where you stand, then go back and shore up specific competencies, or work through it in order — whichever suits how you're actually approaching your assessment.

APC Year Two Professional Readiness Review

Know exactly where you stand
before Year Two begins.

Most candidates enter Year Two without knowing whether they're genuinely on track, whether their competency evidence is strong enough, or where their biggest development gaps actually are. This is an approximately 60-minute diagnostic that tells you — clearly, honestly, and specifically — before those gaps turn into a referral.

Catching a gap in Year One costs hours to fix. Catching the same gap at referral costs months — a single referral means a minimum six-month delay to chartership.

30-question diagnostic, calibrated against the actual evidencing standards assessors use, across five areas: Evidence Quality, Mandatory Competency Depth, Experience Record, Professional Practice & Ethics, and Assessment Readiness
Competency evidence analysis — whether your current evidence demonstrates genuine professional judgement at Level 2, not just activity description
A personalised readiness report from Michael — named strengths and named gaps, broken down by assessment area
A gap priority map — 3–5 specific areas ranked by where focused effort will make the most difference to your pass likelihood
A structured action plan — concrete next steps with guidance on exactly which platform tools to use to close each gap. 30 days access.
