Training courses that provide competencies to be considered an AQP - KBCN1294

We are not aware of any specific training courses that provide all the necessary competencies to be considered an AQP but they may come from a combination of sources:

• industry training courses.
• Industry-recognised methodologies
• Specific research skills. For example, someone who has worked as a social researcher or has a degree or masters involving research methods.
• Consultancies or specialist organisations who provide POEs as a specific service
