ILM is open for registrations for EPA for the Senior Leader Apprenticeship. As one of the biggest EPAOs in England, we pride ourselves on our first-rate customer service. Our EPA Customer Success team are on-hand to walk you through the process and provide advice from the start. Our team includes leadership and management specialists, quality leads, and policy and funding specialists – all working together to provide solutions for you.
Our assessment and grading is standardised and all our assessors have industry experience and receive on-going training, so you can trust that we will deliver a fair and robust assessment.
Assessment events for this standard are:
- Strategic business proposal, Presentation and questioning
- Professional Discussion, underpinned by a portfolio of evidence.
We’re here to support you with EPA preparation and gateway guidance for this standard:
Upon registration for EPA, you will have access to a range of support material for the Senior Leader to help prepare for end-point assessment. All the materials can be accessed via Walled Garden or EPA Pro, our user-friendly platform.
- End-point assessment customer pack: The pack includes detailed guidance on grading criteria for the EPA and the evidence you’ll need to produce for knowledge, skills and behaviours at gateway.
- EPA exemplar materials: available for tutors, providing real assessment examples for each assessment type, such as transcripts and examples of good practice. This will help you to prepare apprentices and ensure they feel ready for assessment. This can also be accessed through EPA Pro.
- Recording forms: supporting you to complete key stages of EPA readiness, we have prepared forms to give you peace of mind and confidence that everything is covered. These packs include a gateway declaration form that is needed during the booking process and assessment forms, if required, that apprentices might need during assessment.
- LIEPA reports: Our lead independent end-point assessors (LIEPAs) produce an annual report with insight into the EPA results and findings across all centres. These reports can help you refine your apprenticeship delivery to improve success rates.
- Apprenticeship certification: As well as receiving their Institute for Apprenticeships and Technical Education (IfATE) apprenticeship certificate, the apprentice will receive an ILM statement of achievement for end-point assessment as well as a globally recognised ILM Digital Credential.
EPA Digital Credentials – on successful completion of assessment. Providing a verified, visual representation of knowledge and skills attained during a Management Apprenticeship, Digital Credentials allow your apprentices to raise their online professional profile and bring their skills to life. We issue digital credentials and lifetime post nominals to learners who have completed their apprenticeship with ILM, allowing them to share their successes and achievements online.
