APMP has a handful of Accredited Training Organisations (ATOs) for its certification training. BidCraft is one of these trusted partners, approved to deliver the official training, and quality audited by the examiner, APMG.
We deliver the training in 3 ways:
1. True self-paced eLearning on the BidCraft Academy (the only ATO to offer this globally)
2. A hybrid option with Academy eLearning and live seminars for teams
3. Or full in-person classroom sessions for corporate clients.
We offer training for APMP’s signature certifications: Foundation, Practitioner, and Capture Practitioner.
Our eLearning platform – the BidCraft Academy – offers a flexible and convenient way of learning for busy bid professionals with tight schedules. It also helps cope with the inevitable last-minute, must-win bids.
Access learning materials at any time and from anywhere, using your laptop, tablet, or mobile. This flexibility makes it easier for you to balance work, life, and education without having to depend on a fixed training timetable.
It is genuine eLearning – bite-sized video, audio, interactive modules, downloadable resources, and quizzes done at your own pace, rather than a live call booked into your calendar.
You get access for 6 months. We used to give people a year, but bid people are terrible procrastinators, so we’re giving you a deadline…
When a team wants to help each other study, we offer a cohort-based hybrid delivery, where everyone gets access to the self-paced eLearning on the Academy, and then we have live scheduled seminars to discuss what has been learned in that module. This allows for detailed discussions on the topics learned, the opportunity to ask questions of our Approved Trainers, and team encouragement to get everyone through.
We offer classroom training for corporate groups, so if your company has up to 12 people to train and would like to use it as an opportunity to get the team together, we can come to you. Just get in touch and we can agree your objectives so we can tailor the training to you.
You have to find the training partner that will work for you, so these are the benefits of working with BidCraft so you can decide if we’re a fit.
Not everyone is accredited to deliver APMP certification training. We have contracts and audits with APMP and APMG that demand rigorous levels of quality and support for learners.
ATOs can have their status revoked, so make sure you find a provider whose status is current (see the APMP website for the latest list).
Also be careful of non-APMP certifications on offer – they may well be a good solution for other needs, but they are not the APMP certifications employers ask for.
To maintain your certification you will need to collect CEUs/CPDs to record in the APMP system. These CEUs can be earned through doing training with ATOs – you get 1 CEU for each hour of training you do.
