The purpose of the end-point assessment (EPA) is to confirm that apprentices have met the required level of knowledge, skills and behavioural standards set by employers and that they are competent in their role as business administrators. There are three components that make up end-point assessment for the Business Administrator apprenticeship standard.
- Knowledge Test: a multiple choice test comprising of 50 equally weighted questions with four possible answers each.
- Portfolio based interview: the apprentice is interviewed by the independent assessor with a portfolio of learning providing the structure for the interview.
- Project presentation: a presentation including Q&A delivered by the apprentice to the independent assessor on a project they have completed or a process they have improved.
The overall apprenticeship is graded as Pass/Distinction.
