Question:

Are there different ways that a candidate can achieve competence?

Answer:

There are a variety of ways in which competence can be achieved. You can use the PDP material and work on your own at your place of work, acquiring a Mentor (who is qualified to provide the service), or by joining a PDP cell that has a Mentor assigned to it for your particular location and this requires your attendance at one workshop per month for 11 months per annum.
