The qualification is delivered through a blended learning approach. You will be required to make time to see your tutor via remote or face-to-face sessions.
The sessions will take place roughly once per month, usually lasting around 2 hours. The duration of these can be extended for any additional learning or support you require. Your tutor will also provide support and guidance in between each learning session.

The End-Point Assessment

For the Higher Apprenticeship in Data Analyst, the EPA consists of the following:
Project Report
As part of your end point assessment, you will complete a data analysis project for your business, tailored to your business’ needs. You will need to complete a final report as an overview of your project, and the findings of your data analysis. This project is a showcase to present your analytical skills and your knowledge of analysis methods. Once your report has been submitted, you will then complete a 40 minute presentation of your project and the findings from your report to the independent end point assessor.
Professional Discussion
After completing your observation, the independent assessor will conduct a professional discussion to further discuss your skills and development over the course of your apprenticeship. This discussion will be completed remotely over the phone, consisting of at least 10 open questions to gauge your knowledge, and understanding, of data analysis and help you further showcase what you have learned throughout the apprenticeship.
