Where does the observation for the Barbering standard take place and who is involved?

The practical observation will be conducted at the apprentice’s workplace or other suitable location.

Training providers are required to make the End-Point Assessor aware of any limitations in assessment premises or the available production cycle or process, which

would constrain the skills to be assessed at the time of the observational practical assessment.

The environment must relate to the apprentice's natural work environment and must conform to current health and safety legislation. The apprentice should be familiar with the range of services, professional products, tools, equipment, and materials. All should be in good working order
