At the end of the programme, they will have achieved both a degree and membership of the profession.
In addition to gaining a relevant degree, the apprentice will gain the skills, competencies, and experience required to gain professional membership. These are clearly set out by the RICS and RTPI, and so will form the basis of the placement schedule and training plan.
