End Point Assessment
The End-Point Assessment (EPA), is the final stage of the apprenticeship. This is an impartial assessment as to whether your apprentice has gained the required skills, knowledge and behaviours set out in the apprenticeship standard.
At T3 Training, we work with NOCN – a leading Government approved, independent End Point Assessment Organisation (EPAO).
EPA’s are designed by relevant employers in industry to assess the competence of the apprentice at the end of their apprenticeship.
The EPA for the business administration apprenticeship standard consists of the following:
Knowledge Test
A test including multiple-choice, error spotting and scenario-based questions to demonstrate knowledge and understanding required by the job role.
Project
This provides each apprentice with an opportunity to demonstrate the core skills, related knowledge and behaviours required by the occupational job role. Apprentices must have extensive knowledge of BIM execution plans (BEP) and BIM clash detection software in order to complete this project.
Structured Interview
The apprentice will be required to showcase, with a presentation to accompany, how the core skills, technical knowledge and behaviours are needed in order to carry out the occupational role effectively.
