Structured mentorship
Work with registered professionals. Several of our mentors also chair professional interviews.
From competentto recognised.
A mentored, evidence-led pathway to professional registration, built around your council's requirements.
Most candidates don't fail registration.They stall on the way to it.
The route is unclear
You are left to guess what your council expects, and when you are ready for it.
Experience goes unrecorded
Years of real work get rebuilt from memory before assessment, because nobody captured evidence against competencies as it happened.
Stalls go unnoticed
Without a mentor reviewing progress, gaps surface only at the registration deadline.
Ten steps, one record.
Every step feeds the same evidence portfolio, so nothing is reconstructed at the end.
Step 01 of 10
Assess
An honest self-assessment against your registration category's competency standards. It is your starting point, not a test to pass.
Step 02 of 10
Plan
Your results become an Individual Development Plan: the competencies you must close, in the order that matters.
Step 03 of 10
Develop
Structured development against the plan: workplace experience, logbook entries and training aligned to your council's requirements.
Step 04 of 10
Mentor
You are matched with a registered professional who reviews your work, guides your priorities and signs off your progress.
Step 05 of 10
Record
Evidence is captured as it happens: documents, videos, work products and third-party records, tagged to competencies and work stages.
Step 06 of 10
Review
Your mentor reviews every submission. Accepted evidence builds your portfolio; rejections come back with clear reasons.
Step 07 of 10
Close gaps
The distance between where you are and where registration requires you to be, reviewed and closed continuously rather than just before your final assessment.
Step 08 of 10
Prepare
Professional assessment and interview preparation that reflects what panels actually look for.
Step 09 of 10
Readiness review
Your mentor and an assessor go through your competencies, verified evidence and current assessments with you, to agree whether you are ready to apply.
Step 10 of 10
Professionalise
You apply to your professional council, with a complete and defensible evidence trail behind you.
Everything the journey needs.
In one place, from your first self-assessment to your application.
Individual Development Plans
Built around your competency gaps, with milestones and target dates you and your mentor work from.
CPD tracking
Aligned to your council's requirements, automatically.
Digital logbooks
Capture experience as it happens, from your phone, on site. It counts.
Recognition of Prior Learning
Experienced practitioners formalise what they already know and do.
Assessment preparation
Interview practice against what panels actually look for.
One process, every council.
The same rigour applies whether you are pursuing candidate, professional or technical registration in the built environment.

Mentors who know the panel.
Mentors and assessors on the platform are registered professionals. Several also chair professional interviews, so guidance reflects what assessment panels look for.

Who it's for
- Graduates and candidates
- Working towards your first professional registration, unsure what the path requires.
- Technicians and technologists
- Progressing to the next registration category, building on an existing record.
- Experienced practitioners
- Turning years of practice into registration through Recognition of Prior Learning.
- Employers
- Who want their professional staff registered, not just qualified.
For organisations
Sponsoring staff through registration works best when someone owns the programme. PR-ED designs it with you, allocates the mentors, and gives your organisation its own view of how your cohort is progressing.
- Programme design and mentor allocation
- PR-ED sets up your organisation's programme and cohorts and allocates each candidate a registered mentor, within each mentor's capacity.
- Your cohort dashboard
- A person you nominate signs in and sees how your own cohorts are progressing: key figures, the pipeline, risk, progress trends and a competency heat map. Demographic breakdowns do not count groups of fewer than five.
- Your roster
- Your organisation's candidates in one list, with their pathway, completion, evidence, risk and status.
- Only your organisation, only what you need
- PR-ED grants access for your organisation alone. It does not open a candidate's personal record, their evidence, their mentor's notes or any other organisation.
For mentors
One screen that replaces a spreadsheet and a memory: who needs a session, whose evidence is waiting for review, and whose progress has quietly stalled.
- Your caseload and capacity
- See the candidates allocated to you, where each one stands, and how many more you can take within the capacity PR-ED has set for you. Every list shows only your own candidates.
- An evidence review queue
- Evidence from your candidates waits oldest first. Accept it, verify it, or send it back with the reason, so the candidate knows exactly what to fix.
- Session logging
- Log a mentoring session from the candidate's record in a few steps, so the history is there when you need it.
- Early-warning flags
- The platform flags a candidate automatically when evidence has waited too long, sessions have lapsed or progress has stalled, so you are not relying on memory.

For programme teams and assessors
Cohort-level readiness at a glance, and an early-warning list, not a surprise at the registration deadline.
- Cohort overview
- Key figures, the pipeline, risk, progress trends and a competency heat map for a cohort, narrowed by organisation, programme or cohort.
- Risk flags and interventions
- Five automatic warnings set a candidate at risk or off track and clear themselves when the cause is fixed. Interventions in the development plan turn a warning into an action with an owner.
- Allocation and bulk actions
- Allocate mentors within their capacity, and start a self-assessment campaign or schedule an assessment for several candidates at once.
- Assessments, level by level
- Assessors record a result for each competency on a six-level scale, L0 to L5, link the evidence it rests on and add a note; results from mentors and assessors are kept apart.
Start where you are.
One account carries you from self-assessment to your application.
