Developed in Collaboration with Key Industry Stakeholders
FISSS has many years of experience as the industry-sector skills certification body, working closely with the DfE and ESFA. We provide quality assurance in apprenticeship assessment and certification and now support over 70 HEIs in this space.
In collaboration with UVAC, we continue to work closely with a focus group of HEIs to ensure that ACE360 meets and exceeds the EPA and quality assurance demands of all stakeholders.
In addition, this strong collaboration is facilitating sector discussion between HEIs, OfS, QAA and IfATE to develop a common narrative on End-Point Assessment quality.
By maintaining a deep understanding of how HEIs operate across all stages of apprenticeship delivery, FISSS ensures that ACE360 continues to meet the needs of all stakeholders and addresses the challenges faced around quality-assured, independent EPA.
Through the continuation of this mutual working relationship, we aim to develop ACE360 as the sector-leading system whilst driving improvement in industry standards now and in the future.
