Apprenticeship Assessors Needed
27 Nov 2019
City and Guilds have issued a call for refrigeration, air conditioning or heat pump experts to become independent assessors for apprenticeship end-point exams. Next year our first group of apprentices are likely to be taking the new RACHP Engineering Technician end-point exams, part of which includes a supervised practical test and an interview with an expert discussing their day-to-day work. There are a range of roles available across England and Wales. To find out more about this rewarding role which will give you an opportunity to help support the next generation of technicians going forward and raise standards in the industry, please see the list of vacancies and information about the part time, paid roles here:https://careers.cityandguildsgroup.com/associate-vacancies/independent-end-point-assessors/
Key criteria for independent assessors are:
- Have no connections with the assessment centre and/or apprentice (to maintain objectivity)
- Have current technical or occupational understanding in areas being assessed
- Are fully conversant with the standards and criteria being assessed
- Be able to demonstrate the occupational competency, required qualifications and criteria as detailed in the apprenticeship standard person specifications (see above)
- Have experience in interviewing techniques
- Can work independently
- Have good time management skills

Opportunity For Employers To Influence Future Skills
10 Dec 2024
BESA, on behalf of the Engineering Building Services Skills Authority (EBBSA,) are setting up Sector Groups (SG’s) in occupations within Building Services. The SG’s purpose is to bring employers within specific occupation groups together to determine the roles that exist within that occupational area, thereafter determine a competency framework for these roles. The IOR is pleased to be invited to support this work and to help co-ordinate outputs with its own plans to map skills needs and roles in the RACHP sector.
