HOW TO PRODUCE THE CRITICAL ANALYSIS (CA) FOR BQSM’S APPLICATION UNDER THE

“SPECIAL ROUTE SCHEME”

NO. QUESTIONS GUIDE REMARKS
1. What are the panels looking for in
my Critical Analysis (CA)?
1) The CA is a written report of a project or projects
which you have been involved in;
2) It is your involvement or role in the project team
that you must outline, analyse and provide
comments on;
3) You must explain not only the project itself, but
the processes you followed and the rationale
behind your decision-making;
4) Your focus must be on analysing the project: do
not simply provide a summary of what it
involved;
5) Your CA must reflect your abilities and
competencies in the following areas:
a) Written and graphical communication
either in Bahasa Malaysia or English
b) Professional standard of reporting and
presentation
c) Analysing, reflective thinking and problem
solving
d) What you have learned from experience
gained
e) Ethics and Codes of Conduct
The panels are not interested in the project or your employer;
they are interested in your abilities and competencies.
They are not looking for the story of what happened on the
project(s) generally, but rather what happened in respect of your
work and contribution, your understanding of why it happened,
and, what the alternatives were.
The report must be written from your perspective.
2. Which project should I choose? 1) The CA is a written report of a project or projects
which you have been involved in

intimately involved in.
The panels will expect you to have a depth of knowledge about
your project(s)
You may have been working under supervision, but you should
have been responsible for problem solving
