Ep 8 - The Secrets of The APC: Revision, Preparation & On the Day

 2020 is already very different to how it was back in February when we released our last 'Secrets of The APC' episode.

But if this episode is anything to learn from its that, when ever the next APC board sits, there is still lots of prep to do and to help you prepare for your APC we've invited Chartered Surveyor Odiri Itoje back into the Broom Cupboard to talk about how she prepared and revisied for her  APC.

Look out for our final episosde on the APC which will be about the day from an assessor's view point, good luck with your preparation and if you think a specific episode would help you and your colleagues please let us know - [e-mail]
