Having gone through numerous modules, essay writing, group work, thesis and portfolio preparation for the CMI Level 7 Diploma in Strategic Management & Leadership (EMBA) apprenticeship programme, the final stage rests on the End Point Assessment (EPA). It’s a two-hour oral assessment of your work-based project and portfolio. Whilst you may get told that the EPA will focus on these elements, two hours is a long time to be questioned, so it helps to go in with a plan.
