What is the Lead Adult Care Worker standard and who is it for?
The Lead Adult Care Worker standard (Level 3) is the next step up from the Adult Care Worker apprenticeship (Level 2). This apprenticeship is for those with “responsibility for providing supervision, front line leadership, guidance and direction for others. Alternatively, this includes individuals working autonomously and exercising personal judgement”. Job titles may include Care Officer, Care Supervisor, Senior Care Worker, Supervising Care Worker and Senior Support Worker.
Course Features – Adult Care Worker Level 3
Duration: 12 – 24 months (with the EPA being delivered once the on-programme training has been completed)
Delivery: The EPA consists of face-to-face and remote assessments.
Level: 3
Standard number: ST0006 (118)
How does the EPA process for this apprenticeship standard work?
The two methods of End-Point Assessment used for this standard are: the Situational Judgement Test (SJT) and the Professional Discussion (PD). Apprentices are tested through both assessments to see whether they have the expected knowledge, skills and behaviours. Then, the apprentice will receive either a Pass, Merit or Distinction.
