Assessment methods

Gateway Requirements

To pass through Gateway the employer will need to be satisfied that the apprentice is consistently working at, or above, the occupational competence of the Level 3 Retail Team Leader. At Gateway the apprentice will submit a readiness form and a synopsis of the proposed business research project which will be agreed by the employer representative and approved by an Innovate Awarding Assessor. At Gateway the apprentice must have achieved Level 2 English and Maths.

On Demand Test

The apprentice will complete a one hour on demand multiple choice test. These will be scenario based questions. It will be undertaken remotely.

Project, Presentation and Questioning

The apprentice will be required to undertake the project and present to an Innovate Awarding Assessor within the three month EPA period. The presentation will take place in a controlled environment either on or off site. The apprentice will have 30 minutes to deliver the presentation to include time for questions and answers at the end.

Professional Discussion
