Download SpecificationWhat is the EPA for Business Administrator Level 3?
The end point assessment (EPA) for Business Administrator Level 3 has 3 assessment methods:
- Knowledge Test
- Project Presentation
- Portfolio based Interview
The Knowledge Test is a multiple-choice test. It contains 50 questions, and apprentices have a time limit of 1 hour to complete the full test.
Advance EPA delivers the Knowledge Test online, with a live invigilator. The invigilator will welcome the apprentice to the assessment, check their ID, and talk them through how the test will work. Once the apprentice is happy to start, their 1-hour time will begin.
Project Presentation, the apprentice delivers a presentation to the EPAO on a project they have completed or a process they have improved. The presentation lasts 10-15 minutes, with a further 10-15 minutes for a Q&A session. The project is completed from month 9 of the apprenticeship and should be completed prior to EPA being triggered. The project is submitted to the EPAO, and they provide a question to answer in the presentation.
Portfolio based Interview, the interview is for 30-45 minutes and graded by the Independent End-point Assessment Organisation (EPAO). The Portfolio of Learning provides a structure for this conversation. The interview assesses understanding and learning shown in the Portfolio; the Portfolio is not directly assessed.
