BDA APC Renewal Process Feedback

Thursday 18 October 2018

The BDA would like to share some lovely feedback about our APC renewals process:

"I had a very positive experience renewing my APC certificate with BDA. I was able to ask questions to clarify information on the website and receive swift responses. After submitting my application I received an email the next day to inform me that I had not signed the data protection form. This was outstanding as it ensured that my application was not delayed on account of my error.. I think that being able to get hold of people by email or phone makes all the difference when applying for the APC.

I then received word of passing together with feedback within 7 working days. The positive feedback indicated the good points in my APC report submission which validated my thinking about how to write a good diagnostic report. Additional feedback was given as to how I could improve my reports and I have already begun implementing this. I think the quality of the feedback given was the high point of the experience.

The entire APC process is one of high anxiety due to the stakes involved. The BDA approach reduced this anxiety substantially."
