The Role
Sheffield Hallam University are currently involved in the delivery of the Police Constable Entry Route (PCER) for the South Yorkshire Police. We are seeking to create a team of Independent Assessors in Policing. This team will support the End Point Assessment of Police Apprentices on the Police Constable Degree Apprenticeships (PCDA) programme.
The role of the Independent Assessor during the End Point Assessment (EPA) is to impartially assess whether the Police Apprentice has developed the skills, knowledge and behaviours outlined in the apprenticeship standard.
The Independent Assessor will have responsibility for independently assessing the three End Point Assessment parts that each Police Apprentice must progress through to successfully complete their apprenticeship, namely:
• EPA Part 1. Professional Discussion linked to Occupational Competence Portfolio
• EPA Part 2. Professional Policing Practice Project
• EPA part 3 Professional Policing Practice Project Presentation and discussion.
The role involves providing detailed feedback to Police Apprentices using appropriate feedback mechanisms and in line with feedback deadlines, entering assessment outcomes into the appropriate records systems and in line with assessment deadlines.
All training and support will be provided, and full DBS checks will be carried out as part of the recruitment process.
