Securing Pathway 4 for bp was a huge achievement and has opened the door for our most experienced project managers to get chartered in the most efficient way. He's built a foundation and a succession path that will outlast all of us, a real legacy.
Voices from across the profession: from project managers articulating their experience for the first time, to chartered leaders and the organisations building these pathways.
The real work was in articulating my experience within strict guidelines. The tools and structured techniques Davy provided made what could have been daunting far more manageable, and noticeably improved my confidence going into the interview.
Davy's guidance, encouragement and clarity at every step made the whole experience feel smooth and supportive, and ultimately led me to achieving my APM ChPP chartership.
This structured accreditation, capturing what it really takes to deliver major infrastructure investments and the technical, people and relationship skills it demands, is genuinely valuable.
Davy was on a mission, not just for himself but for everyone he worked with. The quality and volume of materials he created, and gaining Pathway 4 accreditation, are testimony to his dedication to the profession.
