The Level 2 APLE Certification Process
STAGE A: Application & Cases
- Complete the online Level 2 APLE Application Form. This captures information on roles in employment (including CI implementation achievements) and training/education undertaken. It also requires you to make a statement summarising how your CI knowledge and practical experience meets the Level 2 criteria and asks for the names of two references that may be contacted to corroborate your application.
- Upload to the application form relevant training course or academic certificates.
- Submit the application form to the LCS.
- Once your application is submitted, please submit two case studies via the online case study templates. These are likely to be already referenced in the application form.
- Please always submit your case studies straight after your application.
STAGE B: Application Assessment
