Science manufacturing technicians work in a wide range of companies, including, but not exclusively, chemical, primary and secondary pharmaceutical, biotechnology, formulated products and nuclear manufacturing. A science manufacturing technician will operate the systems and equipment, involved in the production of products. They may work in varied conditions including wearing specialist safety equipment, shift work and on sites running 365 day operations. Many companies operate under highly regulated conditions and a premium is placed on appropriate attitudes and behaviours to ensure employees comply with organisational safety and regulatory requirements.

Science manufacturing technicians are expected to work both individually and as part of a manufacturing team. They are able to work with minimum supervision, taking responsibility for the quality and accuracy of the work they undertake. They are proactive in finding solutions to problems and identifying areas for improving their work environment.

WHY ETA?

We start with the end in mind.

ETA Assessment believes a successful Apprenticeship programme needs to ensure the learner is fully aware of the End Point Assessment process, from the start.

To ensure this happens we:

Engage with you to learn more about the apprentices’ role and their employer
Provide regular calls/meetings to ensure you have the support you need at every step of the process
One-to-one onboarding for your staff to use our user-friendly EPA Quartz platform
Provide resources to guide your learner and employer through Gateway
Help you to prepare your learner for their EPA experience
Share EPA standard specific support material including guidance on grading
Train our expert IEPAs to help relax the learner to give them the best chance of success
Introduce your sector expert Independent End Point Assessor (IEPA)
Provide detailed feedback for the apprentice following their EPA
Arrange resits if necessary, using the feedback as a steer to further learning if needed
Claim for the overall Apprenticeship Certificate

We also provide a seamless process if you decide to change EPAO. We understand that this can sometimes be at short notice and so work hard to ensure the learners are fully equipped at whatever stage they are at.

With access to a named contact and direct line to an EPA Relationship Manager, we also provide unrivalled levels of operational and administrative support.
