NEAP AC / S12(2) APPLICATION PROCESS
The application process can take a minimum of 8 weeks. The Panel can only
consider applications that are complete, applicants have the responsibility for
providing all evidence.
1. Application received, checked, references requested & acknowledgement
email sent to applicant detailing further evidence if required (no reminders will
be sent).
2. After 2 weeks, if reference(s) have not been received, a reminder is sent to
the referee(s), and the applicant is copied in. It is then the applicant’s
responsibility to ensure the reference(s) are submitted, or to provide the
Coordinator with the contact details of alternate referee(s).
3. Once all evidence and references have been received, the application is sent
to 2 Panel members for review. They have 2 weeks before a reminder is
sent. If they have been unable to review the application it is sent to another
Panel member who again has 2 weeks to review before a reminder is sent.
4. Once both Panel members have submitted their decision an outcome letter is
produced and emailed to the applicant using the details provided on the
application form.

evidence, you will be contacted by email to confirm if you still wish to proceed
with the application.
