These are the questions I get asked all the time!...... ⬇ ⬇ ⬇ What is MRICS? Why become MRICS? What are the routes to MRICS qualification? How to navigate the APC process? Well, here we have answered it all!

MRICS and FRICS. Two qualifications that I worked hard to earn and which I have been privileged, in my opinion, to place after my name over the years, at not inconsiderable expense. Letters which say something about me in my profession but that do not define me as a person. Designations that I have voluntarily assisted hundreds of others to achieve too without asking any thanks or favours. Classifications bestowed through competence and achievement by an institution established in the late 1800s to make a statement to the public about the abilities and ethics of its professional members. An institution founded and (for the majority of its long existence) run by its members for its members, a group recognised by Royal Charter whose members may also describe themselves as Chartered Surveyors. Imagine therefore the irritation and insult those members may feel when a twenty-first century platform gives candidates for those qualifications the idea that they can prematurely add similar letters to their names without achievement or membership fee payment. Typical examples of this unethical and misleading practice are MRICS (APC) or RICS-APC or simply RICS. It is not acceptable by any stretch of the imagination and those who ask me why not clearly do not understand the concept of professional ethics and never will.

You are right Daniel, RICS title after your names mean that you had worked hard, got the proper mentoring and ethical knowledge. And people using any other title not in the royal charted rules shall be severely reprimanded and black listed. However my question is what is RICS doing about these issues, we paid fees annually so that they monitored the interest of surveyor, such as title, unethical behaviour, make the market aware a Charted Surveyor duty and how is important to have them on any projects, etc. Our fees should be used to stop these people, by having a social media behaviour monitoring team instead of sitting and waiting for whistleblower to report. People will always used any unlegal title to sell their service to clients.

🎉 Excited to share some great news! I have successfully passed my Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) Assessment for Professional Competence! 🌟 This achievement wouldn't have been possible without the unwavering support of my mentor, Tirivavi Moyo and my counselor, Andrew Kaduku. To future candidates, I'd like to offer some advice: 1️⃣ Understand the Candidate Guide: Make sure to thoroughly go through the Candidate Guide provided by RICS. It's a treasure trove of information and tips to help you navigate the assessment process effectively. 2️⃣ Understand the Pathway Guide: Each pathway has its unique set of requirements and assessment criteria. Take the time to delve into the Pathway Guide specific to your chosen field. Pay attention to the assessment criteria and familiarize yourself with the competencies they're looking for. Building a strong relationship with your mentor and my counselor has been instrumental in my success. They provided invaluable guidance and insights throughout this journey. Seek their advice, ask questions, and actively engage with them. Remember, this journey is a learning experience, and every step you take brings you closer to achieving your professional goals. Stay committed, stay curious, and most importantly, believe in yourself! 💪🏼 #RICS #AssessmentSuccess #ProfessionalGrowth

This is an issue that needs to be addressed and needs attention from all the construction community. It was addressed, in a couple of recent posts, by Daniel Alcon, BSc., DipArb, FRICS, FCIArb, FICCP, FPD. One such post is below and the other one is https://lnkd.in/dvy7a-PW.   My post addresses all the aspirants aiming to achieve membership of such Chartered Institutes. ❌ Not Chartered until you are issued the certificate. ❌ Just starting the process will not win you any points. ❌ Adding tags like “RICS” with qualifiers like “(APC)” is misleading, unethical & more importantly, is the difference between “almost there” & “I am there”.   From my experience, the intent of most aspirants who do this is not to lie, but to grab attention of recruiters and senior professionals in the industry, especially on social media like LinkedIn. And, they try to retain these tags on the CVs, essentially to be consistent with their LinkedIn profiles. My advise: DO NOT DO IT, no excuses.   Alternatively, there are many ways to increase your profile visibility; ✔ Create posts backed by your study and experience ✔ Tag relevant pages, hashtags, within the post to ensure it is viewed by the target audience, professionals of the field. ✔ Do not hesitate to post, out of fear of criticism (“everybody must already know this”, “this is so basic, that if I share, they will think I am stupid”). Remember, if you are learning something new, there is someone out there who has not learnt it yet. ✔ Find people who have gone through the same process and within same domains as you. Use filters in LinkedIn search. Drop them messages / InMails, expressing your intent to connect with a clear agenda of what you expect of that interaction. ✔ Study innumerable video / written advises on how to draft an efficient LinkedIn post and how to target the right audience for it.   “There is a way to do it better – find it.” Thomas A. Edison
