Free webinar: OfS quality assurance of integrated EPA – what does it mean in practice?
November 20 @ 1:00 pm – 2:00 pm
The Office for Students (OfS) has been undertaking external quality assurance of integrated end-point assessments (EPA) for over a year, so it is a good opportunity to reflect, learn and incorporate insights into ongoing practice.
Whilst integrated EPA forms part of the broader degree, there are several significant requirements related to the OfS quality assurance approach (including Condition B4) which you will need to consider carefully and comply with. The session will include insights from the University Of Derby, who have undertaken the EQA activity and the Sean Lancaster from the OfS Integrated Degree Apprenticeship EQA team. Delegates will gain insights from both perspectives to support their own practice.
On Wednesday 20 November from 1:00-2:00pm – drawing on our work with over 1,000 apprenticeship providers (including many HEIs), 60 EPAOs and quality assurance bodies – we’re hosting a free webinar to give you an insight into:
- The experiences of providers and OfS through the EQA process
- the key areas to consider in your preparation for delivery of integrated end point assessment
- the requirements of OfS quality assurance readiness checks
- the requirements OfS quality assurance monitoring checks
- the practical implications for those delivering integrated EPA
