Elevate EPA achieves Ofqual recognition for two additional Standards
16 September 2025 – Elevate was formally recognised by Ofqual to deliver Assessment for two new apprenticeship standards: the Level 3 Teaching Assistant and the Level 5 Specialist Teaching Assistant.
This recognition strengthens Elevate’s growing reputation as a specialist Assessment Organisation within the education sector – enabling providers and employers to streamline their programme delivery by working with one trusted partner across multiple standards.
Building on Elevate’s existing recognition for the Level 7 Academic Professional, this expansion reflects the organisation’s strategy to offer high-quality, inclusive assessment services across key stages of the teaching assistant journey.
‘This is an exciting next step in our mission to make assessment feel better,’ said Mel Feek, Founder and CEO of Elevate EPA. ‘We’re proud to now offer recognised assessment services across Levels 3, 5 and 7, supporting providers who want consistency, transparency and trust at every stage.
And we’re not stopping here – we’ll continue expanding our portfolio, with more education-focussed standards on the horizon, as we work towards becoming the go-to Assessment Organisation for providers who value clarity, inclusion and meaningful outcomes for learners.'
With growing demand for practical, high-quality teaching assistant training, this new recognition gives providers the flexibility to consolidate their assessment provision under one organisation that understands the unique demands of education-focused programmes.
Elevate assessments are delivered by experienced academics who remain active in practice, ensuring assessments are both rigorous and relevant. The organisation is known for its open communication, responsive support and genuine commitment to fairness and inclusion.
