Step 2: Get familiarised with the Standards
With the help of assessment plan, every apprentice needs to understand what the programme entails. Each Apprenticeship Standard and comes with its own Assessment Plan which outlines how it is assessed against the standard
Step 3: Evidence Gathering
Training provider will support the apprentices to gather required evidence through the course of the training. Apprentice will need to demonstrate their knowledge, skills and behaviours using a number of formats, including written or recorded statements and observations, reports, presentations, appraisals and feedback.
Step 4: EPA Ready
After gathering all the required evidence, the employer or and the training provider, will need to decide whether the apprentice is ready to proceed to the proper end point assessment. The readiness process may include conducting mock EPA for the apprentices.
Step 5: The EPA - Assessment
The End Point Assessment is the final milestone for apprentices. It examines their ability to demonstrate the knowledge, skills and behaviours through a range of assessment methods including professional discussion, multiple choice test, observation etc.
