Overview

The End-Point Assessment (EPA) module underpins all aspects of your End-Point Assessment activities from the set-up of the Apprentice Standards and applying their awarding and grading rules; to the onboarding of customers, registering Apprentices, putting them forward for Gateway and post Gateway activities and allocating assessors to the eventual awarding of the Apprenticeships.

The module will help you to demonstrate compliance with each associated EPA General Conditions and includes a wide range of regulatory aligned reports, features and data extracts.

Some clients want to have a separate EPA environment and solution, whereas others want the EPA features offered as a standalone solution to provide a single-entry point for your customers and staff across your entire product range - eliminating the need to implement and pay for multiple systems and integrations.  

So whatever you decide we can set-up and deploy accordingly.
