Dates for RAMA (SQP) Written and Oral Assessments

New format on-campus exams

These exams highlighted above will take place at Harper Adams University in Shropshire: it will be either a traditional pen-and-paper exam (the same exam questions/format as those done online), or will still be an online exam but on University equipment in University facilities, and so may better suit those who are less computer-confident or who don't have access to suitable equipment or Internet connection. Check the notes above to be certain which format you are choosing.

These exams are particularly well suited to those taking part in the face-to-face training course at Harper Adams, but space will normally be available for others: please book as normal with AMTRA, but spaces at this exam are limited and thus subject to confirmation.

Please note that these on-campus exams are subject to sufficient numbers choosing to book, and may be withdrawn at the discretion of Harper Adams University if unviable.

How to book your place

Please return the Assessment booking form to us.

On the form, make sure you include the date for each module you wish to book - don't forget to include the Base module as well as species module(s) if that's appropriate for you. And do include the viva (oral) Assessment if you're ready to book that too.

If you wish to spread out your modules over multiple assessment periods, that's fine, and there's no additional charge.

If you already know what you want to do when, you can book them all in one go even for different months, or you can book them individually as and when you're ready - it's up to you. Also, there's no requirement to do them in a particular order - whatever works best for you.
