Hello

I hope someone can help with my understanding. If an apprentice studies AQ2016, then I believe that a portfolio of evidence is required as part of the EPA. Is this the case for those not on a apprenticeship? If so does the non-apprentice just complete the unit assessments and the synoptic?

Thanks for your help.

    Yes, that's correct. Only students studying via the apprenticeship route will need to complete the EPA. All other 'non-apprenticeship' students will need to complete all mandatory units within the level, NOT including the EPA :)

    Do non apprenticeships need to complete the synoptic as I am being told this is part of EPA

    If you are not doing an apprenticeship then yes you will have to complete each levels synoptic assessment.

    @Norvydas is correct. If you are a non-apprentice then yes a synoptic is included within each level of the AAT Accounting Qualification and these are compulsory. Apprenticeship students also do need to complete a synoptic but this is included within the EPA.
