1st for Awarding (previously 1st for EPA) Bewertungen 

I had a great experience with 1st for EPA while completing my digital marketing apprenticeship. The whole process was clearly structured and straight forward. They provided support throughout my EPA to make it a positive experience and I would recommend them to others.

I had a good experience with 1st for EPA when doing my Marketing Executive Apprenticeship.
I think the 1st for EPA toolkits and documents would’ve been a bit clearer, as there was a lot of information to take in from the documents.

1st for EPA recently conducted the assessment for my Level 4 Marketing Apprenticeship, and given the exam circumstances, the experience was smooth. Scheduling my assessments around my personal commitments, including work and family, was straightforward. A dashboard provided comprehensive details regarding the exam schedule and additional information, along with timely reminders of all upcoming assessments. The assessor, Helen, who facilitated the professional discussion and Q&A session, was exceptional. She created a comfortable and stress-free atmosphere, putting me completely at ease. I received my results within approximately 10 days.

Really happy with whole process and results. Achieved distinction.

Alan Anstead has made my experience incredible. He has been very patient with me throughout the entire course and helped me whenever I required extra support.

I was doing my Marketing Manager apprenticeship in 2021-23 and was supposed to sit an End Point Assessment to complete the program - which happened with the 1st for EPA 08/01/24.

The entire process of the preparation to the EPA (Gateway etc.) and the session itself were managed by the 1st for EPA professionals in a friendly and professional manner, so the entire process from the Gateway docs submission to the actual assessment was very smooth and hassle free, I'm pretty impressed. Many thanks, well done, keep doing a great job!

1st For EPA were extremely helpful. They provided a helpful toolkit which details everything you should have and how you can prepare for each stage of your EPA. They also provided many helpful resources which I could use to help prepare me in advance. The Assessor who conducted my structured interview was very kind and reassuring. I would highly recommend! Thank you.

I finished my EPA with 1st for EPA and I really recommend it.
I had great support since the beginning.
Thank you very much.

I have just started as part of the internal quality assurance team. From first contact to final onboarding the experience has been hugely positive. Everyone who has provided me information and guidance have been fantastic, patient and professional. Looking forward to supporting assessors and learners in the delivery of first-class apprenticeship end point assessments.

The team were great to work with, quick and fast response time and was very helpful overall!

Honestly very good customer service, i was set up with a meeting with Becky from 1st for EPA to discuss our next steps with a EPA portal. This is the first direct experience i have had with an organisation like this and it was very pleasant. I was freely able to ask questions if necessary and overall the process was explained very clearly. I also appreciate being able to email a direct person and not just a general inbox. I am looking forward to working with this organisation in the future.

1st for EPA made the whole end point assessment very smooth and kept me informed throughout the entire process.

My end point assessor Rebecca was so lovely and made me feel calm and at ease, despite my nerves!

I'm super happy with my EPA result and achieving a distinction!

Great company for your EPA, thank you to Rebecca and the team at 1st for EPA!

I found my experience with 1st for EPA brilliant, they had great and very fast communication, friendly, and overall a very positive experience. They made everything easy and clear for me and ensured that I had all the relevant updates and that I understood everything. Couldn't recommend enough.

Really easy experience from start to finish, my assessor was friendly and easy to talk to and made the process very simple and straight forward, which in turn, helped calm me down too. I won't name the assessor but if you'd like to know who it was, I'm sure you can ask me or find out another way. 👍

1st for EPA provided me with all the useful resources to ensure I successfully passed the course.
They also provided me with a detailed assessment criteria which enabled me to see which objectives I'd achieved throughout the assessment period.
I was given beneficial feedback which I am now able to put into use at work and in my daily life.

1st for EPA have always provided great Customer Service, their communication is fantastic. We have always found the team to be approachable and friendly and eager to work with us as a training provider with the learner at the heart of it all.

Excellent experience, simple seamless process and friendly team.

My assessor was incredibly warm and made the EPA process much easier. I was very worried going into my presentation, Q&A and Professional Discussion but she calmed my nerves and was incredibly kind! Thank you :)

1st for EPA has been consistently professional, supportive and engaging right from the moment we joined them as our EPAO. The support from their staff is second to none, being extremely responsive, supportive and positive, as well as highly accommodating. I would particularly like to thank Beth for her quick and effective responses every time I send her something out of the blue. Fantastic service across the board!

1st for EPA were attentive and pleasant to deal with during my assessment period. I received replies quickly which was particularly helpful when experiencing technical issues during my final exam.

Assessors and invigilators also made me feel comfortable and were really accommodating.

Thanks to the team at 1st for EPA for making this a great experience!
