Portfolio-based interview

Where does the interview for the Poultry Technician standard take place and who is involved?

The short answer knowledge test for the Poultry Technician standard can be taken in-person, via a paper-based assessment, or remotely, via online means.

Paper-based assessments typically take place at the employer’s or training provider's premises, and an appointed person will be in the room with the apprentice to invigilate while they take the exam.

The time and date of the project presentation are agreed upon between the apprentice and their assessor at the assessment planning meeting, whether face-to-face or online.

A temporary dispensation has been applied for this apprenticeship. The dispensation started on 5 December 2022 and will run until the revised end-point assessment plan is published. Therefore, the portfolio-based interview will only take place remotely.
