This project builds on an early research into End-Point Assessments (EPAs) carried out by AoC in September 2016 as part of the Future Apprenticeships programme. The objective was to test and trial apprenticeship EPA activity through stages considering a range of areas such as the resources used by End-Point Assessment Organisations (EPAOs), the consistency of grading by Independent Assessors (IAs), and so on. The purpose of the research was to gain a greater understanding of what leads to an effective EPA experience for all stakeholders and to share these findings prior to the major roll out of EPA across all apprenticeship standard delivery. This report contains the key findings and conclusions of this research as well as useful checklists to support your planning and preparation for EPA.
