Find out more at pearson.com. Overview of the independent end‑point assessor role Government has introduced a requirement that all apprenticeships contain an end‑point assessment (EPA) which is a holistic assessment of the Knowledge, Skills and Behaviour (KSBs) that have been learnt throughout the apprenticeship. This is to make sure that apprentices meet the rigorous standard set by employers and are fully competent in the relevant occupation. We must provide employers with confidence that completing an apprenticeship means an individual is fully job‑ready. An independent EPA means those deciding on the competency of the apprentice have nothing to gain from the outcome of the assessment. To maintain independence within the scope of this EPA, an independent end‑point assessor (IEA) can only undertake end‑point assessments of apprentices with whom they have no conflict of interest. The end‑point assessments will be conducted onsite, or remotely, on dates agreed with employers and/or providers if appropriate. IEA will record and submit the EPA outcomes, with clear justifications for the grading decisions. EPA activities will be quality assured by Pearson quality assurance representatives.
