End-Point Assessment (EPA)
Full-time apprentices will typically spend 24 months on-programme (before the gateway) working towards the occupational standard, with a minimum of 20% off-the-job training. The purpose of the end point assessment (EPA) is to test whether an apprentice is fully capable of doing their job before they receive their apprenticeship certificate. It also helps to demonstrate that what an apprentice has learnt can be applied in the real world.
The focus is now on the outcome of an apprenticeship and apprentices have to demonstrate the knowledge, skills and behaviours that employers have identified they need.Training Outcome:Successful completion of the apprenticeship may lead to a full-time contract as well as further CPD training.Employer Description:Stafford Health and Wellbeing (SHaW) is the new home for Browning Street Surgery. This is a well-respected practice that has been based in the north of Stafford since the NHS began.
It was originally based on the Foregate before moving to Browning Street. It was the first Stafford practice to be modernised in 1991 when the practice premises were enlarged and for 6 months the practice operated from a porta-cabin.
Within a few years, with the expansion of services, the practice had outgrown the building. Despite inadequate car-parking and no attached pharmacy patient numbers have remained the same whilst other practices have rebuilt and developed more modern premises.
The strength of the practice is that it remains very patient focused delivering quality medical and nursing care from an experienced and well developed practice team.
The building of new facilities as part of the Northfield Village development by Staffordshire County Council offers an incredible opportunity to take the skills of the practice team and place them in premises that are second to none anywhere in the area.Working Hours :Specific days and shifts are to be confirmed upon interview with the pharmacy.Skills: Communication skills,Attention to detail,Organisation skills,Customer care skills,Problem solving skills,Administrative skills,Analytical skills,Logical,Team working,Creative,Initiative,Non judgemental,Patience....Read more...
