Facilitation of Assessment
DSW has always had a ‘digital by default’ approach to end-point assessment; this allows us to provide greater flexibility for all stakeholders while reducing fees and our carbon footprint.
- Interviews and presentations are conducted using web conferencing platforms and we’re flexible enough to use a platform of the employer’s choosing when required.
- Written exams, MCQs and Case Studies are carried out online using an invigilated assessment platform
- Portfolios and Projects are submitted to DSW in digital format for assessment
- Our assessments are also administered using an online platform, epaPRO, which provides training providers with access to results, reports and dashboards.
This is all supported by named account managers and operations contacts who are here to support you at each step of the EPA journey.
