WHAT WE'RE CURRENTLY WORKING ON
How we’re designing and delivering the next generation of apprenticeship assessment.

Where we are right now

Reform is being implemented on a rolling basis, with assessment plans being updated standard by standard.

 

This page shows which standards we're actively working on and where we are in the process.

​

We update this page regularly as standards progress and new ones are added.

Our Reform Process

For each standard, we work through the following stages:

1

Kick-Off

We review the new assessment plan and begin our internal design work. Where possible, we run a kick-off webinar at this stage to share our initial thinking and hear early views from providers and employers

2

In Development

We're actively designing our assessment approach

3

Assessment Criteria Review

We work with provider and employer subject matter experts to shape and test our approach

4

Final Proposal

We share our proposed assessment model for structured feedback before it goes live

5

Live

The reformed assessment is available for new starts
