Portfolio iMAP and Modular iMAP

We are now able to offer an alternative format of iMAP - Modular iMAP.  Whilst the assessment itself remains unchanged, Modular iMAP will allow maximum flexibility and a longer timescale to complete iMAP.

Modular iMAP will also allow those who do not want to become members, or those who are current members, to have their work assessed.

 

Below is a comparison of the two processes.
