The tool provides a form that will guide you through each of the framework capability areas to help you decide which level best describes your current skills, knowledge and behaviour. The form should take approximately 20-30 minutes to work through.

You will then receive a personalised email with a record of your self-assessment, detailing each of the framework capabilities and the level you chose.
