Its easy to see how changes driven by the new levy and trailblazer apprenticeships could lead to apprenticeship assessment becoming a tick-box exercise; different skills need robust on-programme development and testing in preparation for independent, rigorous, third-party and external assessment to ensure new apprenticeships are up to scratch and high-quality.
By embedding an ILM Diploma within your management apprenticeships, ILM will help you to maintain the highest levels of quality to prepare learners for rigorous end-point-assessment and ensure they meet the new standards, and that the skills developed during the apprenticeship are fully recognised.
