Six chapters, straight from someone who has done the job for over a decade

01

Welcome

Why qualified doesn't feel the same as ready, and what this handbook sets out to close.

02

What the job actually involves

Surveys are only one part of the week. What runs alongside them, and why it catches new assessors out.

03

After qualifying, before earning

The longer, less signposted stretch of road that opens up once the accreditation is sorted.

04

Where new assessors go wrong

The mistakes that come up time and again in the first year, and how to avoid making them yourself.

05

Why mentoring changes the curve

What self study can and can't teach you, and what closes the gap faster.

06

Where to go from here

A clearer picture of the stretch ahead, and what support looks like if you want it.

For anyone who has just qualified and isn't quite sure what Monday morning looks like

You're accredited, but no one has told you what to charge, how to find your first ten clients, or how long you can go before the first payment lands.
You're working alone, with no colleague to ask when a survey throws up something unusual.
You're still deciding: self-employed and building your own client base, subcontracting for an agency, or something in between.
You want the honest version of what the job involves, not a brochure building up to a sales pitch.

“I'm absolutely certain I would have given up in the summer had I not found you and taken up your mentoring service. A massive thank you for your patience and support.”

— Esther W
