Here you’ll find an explanation of what the Assessment of Technical Competence (ATC) is, and how to enrol. We also provide sources of guidance, information and support, for candidates and employers.
Please follow the links below to find out more about ATC 2007:
RICS has introduced a simpler, more market-relevant process for its technical qualification in the UK. Access to the qualification has been broadened but the quality of the RICS mark remains.
A layered approach to final assessment enables different types of skills displayed by technical staff to be captured. The assessment is in two parts:
- Completion of an online exercise proves awareness of RICS' ethical requirements
- Demonstration of sector-specific competencies is achieved through a number of written submissions
Overall, the two outcomes of an RICS final assessment are a pass or referral. In the minority of cases, where submissions provide insufficient evidence of a candidate's ability, an interview may be necessary.
