Apprenticeship

The Digital Product Manager Level 4 Apprenticeship

The Digital Product Manager apprenticeship develops the knowledge, skills, and behaviours needed to manage digital products through their lifecycle, from discovery and development through to iteration and improvement. It is suited to individuals working in product, digital, or technology teams across public, private, and charitable sector organisations.

What does Digital Product Manager EPA involve?

The apprenticeship assessment for the Digital Product Manager standard is made up of two components.

Project with presentation and questioning

After gateway, apprentices produce a 1,500-word project report on managing a transition between stages of the product lifecycle, submitted to progress minded by week 10 of the EPA period. This is followed by a 20-minute presentation and 40 minutes of questioning delivered via Microsoft Teams, covering product development, standards, and product operations.

Professional discussion underpinned by a portfolio of evidence

A structured 60-minute professional discussion delivered remotely via Microsoft Teams. The assessor uses planned and follow-up questions to explore how the apprentice applied product management skills and behaviours in practice, underpinned by a portfolio of real work from the apprenticeship. At progress minded, we guide all parties through the process clearly and calmly, so there are no surprises at the end.

I would also like to pass on positive feedback for Michelle, Apprentice Assessor and IQA. I was apprehensive about the end-point assessment, although I was fully prepared. She was very approachable, helpful and supportive which made me feel at ease

I just wanted to share how good Catherine in your EPA Admin team is. She's very responsive, always helpful and does exactly what she says she will do. As a customer its refreshing to know that you never have to chase, but more importantly makes you feel valued.
