Assessment
To achieve this qualification, apprentices are assessed throughout their programme, culminating in a final assessment, which results in a Pass, Distinction, or Fail.
The Apprenticeship Assessment begins once the employer confirms the apprentice is consistently performing at or above the standard required. Delivered by Highfield, the assessment typically spans three months and includes two main components:
Presentation with Q&A The apprentice delivers a presentation based on apprenticeship topics, followed by a question-and-answer session to assess understanding.
Professional Discussion underpinned by a Portfolio of Evidence Drawing from a portfolio built throughout the apprenticeship, this discussion allows the apprentice to demonstrate their knowledge, skills, and behaviours.
The combined results from these assessments determine the final grade.
