The other element of Professional Review is the relevant exam.
The interview tests your ability and ensures that you have satisfied all the core objectives within your Initial Professional Development (IPD).
You may attempt the interview before or after the exam, depending on what suits you best.
The interview normally lasts between 60 and 90 minutes. This includes around 10 minutes for you to make a presentation that explains how you have met your IPD objectives.
Reviewers will try to help you by asking appropriate questions, but it's essential that you can demonstrate how you have achieved all of your core objectives.
You'll need to click on the Apply Now button and have ready the following documents:
- The IPD final report forms for each of the 13 core objectives
- A two page experience report (CV)
You'll also be asked for the PRI application fee payment.
You will then be contacted by your Regional Group, who will request your portfolio of work and set a date and location for your interview. Please note that due to the ongoing situation with COVID-19, your interview may be conducted remotely, and you will be advised by your Regional Group if this is the case.
More information on the core objectives, what to include in your portfolio and additional information can be found on the Initial Professional Development page.
