Designed as an entry level role into Business Administration, the Level 3 Business Administrator apprenticeship offers practical knowledge and skills from planning and organising, to record keeping and quality control.
Business Administrator, Business Coordinator, Team leader or Supervisor.
This apprenticeship standard has been allocated a maximum funding cap of £5,000, which is the anticipated full cost for delivering this standard and the end point assessment.
The Business Administrator apprenticeship is an exciting work-based route towards developing Business Administrators and includes work-based learning, which means that the apprentice is in paid employment for the duration of their apprenticeship and receives on the job training and support.
Through both of the above, apprentices are able to acquire essential knowledge and skills, and prepare for the End Point Assessment.
Backed by our Royal Charter
Only CMI can award Foundation Chartered Manager (fCMgr) full Chartered Manager (CMgr) status on completion of an apprenticeship, depending on experience.

Assessment method 1: Knowledge Test - a multi-choice test to last a maximum of 60 minutes which includes 50 equally weighted multi-choice questions with four possible answers. The Knowledge test typically needs to be passed before the apprentice progresses to the Portfolio-based Interview and Project Presentation.
Assessment method 2: Portfolio-based Interview - The apprentice is required to prepare a portfolio of evidence during the on-programme phase of their apprenticeship, which showcases their best work. The interview which lasts 30-45 minutes, assesses understanding and learning shown in the Portfolio; the Portfolio is not directly assessed.
Assessment method 3: Project Presentation - The apprentice is required to prepare and deliver a presentation (followed by questions and answers) on a project they have completed or a process they have improved. The project is submitted to the EPAO who provides a question to answer in the presentation. This assessment method will typically last 30 minutes (the presentation lasts 10-15 minutes, with a further 10-15 minutes for a Q&A session).
