APM requirement practice
EVALUATE the performance report using the organisation’s objectives. Do not recommend new KPIs.
1. What does EVALUATE control here?
2. IDENTIFY → DESCRIBE: what changes?
3. EXPLAIN → ANALYSE: what changes?
4. ASSESS → EVALUATE: what changes?
5. DISCUSS → RECOMMEND: what changes?
6. ADVISE → JUSTIFY: what does each buy?
7. CRITICALLY EVALUATE: what earns the added depth?
Answer every element first — in the exam, each one matters.
