Did you know that EAL qualifications can be used to support the delivery of apprenticeship standards - even where qualifications are not a mandatory requirement?
Our qualifications provide a structured delivery framework for the apprenticeship and an audit trail for the 20% off the job training requirement.
As part of our approach to continuously improve our policies and centre guidance, we have recently reviewed and updated our Instructions for Conducting Examinations within EAL qualifications.
In response to feedback from centres, we have included more detail on the invigilation requirements for examinations. The instructions provide details of how you, as a recognised EAL centre, should manage, conduct and monitor examinations within EAL qualifications and actions that should be taken by individuals involved in the examination process.
