When I embarked on my journey to become a Chartered Quantity Surveyor with RICS, I took the help of AIMS. I found extremely well-planned and structured sessions which covered theoretical knowledge of all the 18 competencies in great detail. I found these sessions to be very interactive, thus helping me clear all queries regarding the topics. My practical knowledge was further enhanced by the group study sessions which also helped me to develop my communication and presentation skills. The mock interview gave me the final boost before the final interview. I am extremely grateful to Mr. Ramesh for his tireless efforts and guidance to help me to achieve my goal. He has been instrumental in providing many Chartered Surveyors to the construction industry. I wish him all success in his endeavor to achieve a global reach.

My decision to join with AIMS was a stepping stone to achieve my aims in the professional development. I attended all the comprehensive APC guidance sessions conducted by AIMS in 2011 with an aspiration to become MRICS. AIMS has really transformed my potentials from being a Quantity Surveyor level to a Chartered Quantity Surveyor and also provided networking opportunities with like-minded professionals in the industry. I recommend all the youngsters to join with AIMS to accomplish their aims and develop great leadership and real time skills through an excellent guidance programs from the founder of AIMS. Good luck to AIMS global vision.

The AIMS APC guidance program is well structured and organized which had guided me on the way to achieve my dream of RICS membership. Thanks to Mr. Ramesh for his extended supports after the program through the teamwork. I gained knowledge shared from the construction professionals in different sectors during teamwork. AIMS mentoring team provided valuable feedback which helped me to succeed in my APC submissions. Furthermore, the motivation given during the program had derived me in all situations towards the goal of success. I recommend all the APC aspirants to utilize the AIMS platform to achieve your success

I have been associated with AIMS since 2015. AIMS APC Guidance Program and motivational sessions from Mr. Ramesh Palikila are outstanding and helped me a lot in attaining success in my APC journey. AIMS provides effective mentoring for APC aspirants to improve their knowledge and competency levels. I am very happy to share some of the benefits I enjoyed with AIMS - Structured APC program, frequent CPD events, Interactive workshops, Guidance for APC process, Team Working, Improvement of presentation skills, Networking with QS and Management professionals from various organisations. I would sincerely recommend QS professionals and APC aspirants to join AIMS to accomplish your aims. I also express my gratitude to AIMS and Mr. Ramesh for his continued guidance and support for the QS community and candidates.

I met Mr. Ramesh, a couple of years ago, and I feel it was a kraurotic moment in my professional life. I thought my journey from a QS to chartered QS would be a mystery. I had dreamt for it initially and thought it requires hard core steps, structured training, long hours of university classes & more of class room attendance, which I felt wouldn’t be practical in my case. Me being a family person, who would like to balance all the quality elements in life, was searching for a route that could utilize my experience and skills and proper guidance from a reliable source.
By then, I was delighted to learn that Mr. Ramesh had begun providing extensive guidance programs for APC aspirants. I didn’t have a second thought and grabbed the opportunity to join AIMS. The prime factor being the belief in the great mentor Mr. Ramesh - his passion of teaching, and his strong vision to build highly competent construction industry professionals.
I have taken the Professional Experience Route and strictly followed the instructions which made it easier for me get through the assessments.
AIMS has provided me a great platform to enhance my knowledge and professional skills and to be a part of highly professional network. AIMS workshops & team work has really boosted my confidence. The aspirants are really encouraged to take initiatives and hone leadership skills. During my journey with AIMS, I have realized a steady progression in my interpersonal skills as well.
Appropriate guidance, reference materials, mock interviews and above all consistent motivation really helped me to get through the assessments and finally to become a successful chartered Quantity Surveyor. Thank you Mr. Ramesh & AIMS for making this happen.
