Assessment Practising Certificate (APC)

I hold a current APC certificate.

 

An Assessment Practising Certificate, (APC), endorses a specialist teacher’s qualifications and competence to undertake full diagnostic assessments for Dyslexia / Specific Learning Difficulties.

​

An APC is considered good practice. It's required by the Department for Education to carry out assessments that are eligible for the Disabled Student Allowances.  The Joint Council for Qualifications (JCQ) also recognises an APC for the purposes of specialist assessment for Examination Access Arrangements.
