Description

Folkestone & Hythe District Council (FHDC) is a Registered Apprenticeship Training Provider (RoATP), offering apprenticeships to its own staff as well as partner organisations and other local businesses.
The Council currently have around 70 apprentices registered, spread across five cohorts, who will be completing their qualifications between April 2020 and April 2021.
As part of the apprenticeship delivery, all apprentices are required to pass through an End Point Assessment (EPA) at the conclusion of their studies. This is in order to achieve their apprenticeship.
The Council is therefore seeking to engage the services of an experienced and qualified EPAO in order to carry out its EPAs.

This opportunity is published on Kent Business Portal, to access please visit the portal's webpage https://www.kentbusinessportal.org.uk/ . Registration is required, if not already registered
