End-point assessment venues

City & Guilds EPA venue network

Discover City & Guilds-endorsed centres in your area with the resources to facilitate end-point assessments across a number of sectors

To complete their apprenticeship, apprentices have to successfully demonstrate the knowledge, skills and behaviours specified in their apprenticeship standard during their end-point assessment (EPA) at the end of their programme.

With thousands of these EPAs taking place every year, and many requiring specific spaces, materials and personnel, it can be challenging for providers to deliver the assessments their learners need to progress.

In order to support our customers and enable apprentices to progress successfully we have identified and endorsed a number of centres with the required resources to facilitate end- point assessments across a number of sectors.


City & Guilds EPA venues

City & Guilds endorsed venues are fully verified and approved by our team of Technical Advisors to confirm their ability to host apprentices for EPAs.

By matching venues with capacity to offer assessments with providers looking for facilities for their learners, we aim to reduce the barriers blocking progression for apprentices and encourage timely EPA completion.
