Competence Based Assessment[]

The candidate undertaking the RegPM program must fully understand, and be competent in, all components of a project, program or Portfolio life-cycle.[2] They must show this based around their current and previous workplace experiences.[3] Accreditation or certification for the levels requires the completion of an Assessment Record Book (ARB). The Completion of the ARB consists of answering many questions on Project, Program or Portfolio Management theory which also requires the candidate to provide a logbook of evidence supporting their level of competence.[4]
