Level 3 Food Technologist
End-point Assessment ST0198

Food Technologists work to ensure food products are safe to eat and of consistent quality. Roles exist throughout the food supply chain for qualified food technologists. Their food science skills are in demand from growers, food manufacturers and retailers.

​

The Food Technologist apprenticeship may open up future career opportunities as a Technical, Quality Assurance or Product Development Manager.

 

The end-point assessment (EPA) for the Food Technologist apprenticeship includes the following three elements:

​

  • A written knowledge test answered through a combination of multiple-choice questions and short answer questions

  • A work-based and job-related workplace project, culminating in a written report and presentation

  • A professional dialogue and interview, lasting between 45-60 minutes.

​

The three EPA components must be taken in order, with the project and interview taking place towards the end of the 12 week end-point assessment period.

​

The standard charge for EPA is 15-20% of the IfATE maximum funding rate, to view FDQ's Fee's Policy click here
