How is it assessed?
All apprenticeships are required to have an end-point assessment that is carried out by an independent body. Apprentices must pass the end-point assessment in order to achieve their apprenticeship and receive their certificate.
The end point assessment involves a multi-choice test to last a maximum of 60 minutes and includes 50 equally weighted multi-choice questions with four possible answers each which typically needs to be passed before the apprentice progresses to the interview and presentation. The presentation with questions and answers is based on a topic set by the End Point Assessment Organisation (EPAO), followed by a Professional Discussion underpinned by a portfolio of evidence (collated during their work/study time).
How is the apprenticeship quality assured?
The Institute for Apprenticeships and Technical Education (IfATE) regulates the quality of apprenticeships. The IfATE’s role is also to advise on setting funding caps, and approve apprenticeship standards and assessment plans.
Is this apprenticeship certificated?
Yes – apprentices that successfully complete all parts of the Apprenticeship will receive a full apprenticeship certificate. This will be in addition to any qualifications that are taken as part of the apprenticeship.
